Secondly, the author contended that the Chevalier could not remember exact details of the meeting with Voltaire. The lecturer, on the other hand, maintains that Chevalier takes reference from the notes that he prepare on the same night when he had a conversation with Voltaire and consulted at the time of writing in his memoir and hence Chevalier are reliable.

lastly, the author posits that Chevalier might have bribed the jailor in order to escape from the prison as Chevalier had many connections with the powerful people. however, the women in her speech claims that there were other prisoners who also had good connection but still they were not able to escape and in addition to this there are records that the Jail has to repair the ceiling of the Chevalier' locker.
