"Ref. BCNI 4253 / 4140 ; Belg. Typ. 7099 / 5371. Gerardus Vervuust (Verwust), (ca. 1548-1596) friar from Bruges, where he entered the order and became active as a preacher. During the Calvinist interlude (1578-1584), he protested against the mistreatment and dubious legal procedures against fellow friars. In reaction, Gerardus was put in prison, mistreated and then exiled from Bruges, alongside of other Catholic clerics. In 1592 he is vicar in Ypres (Ieper) (ref. Franciscan authors). Jean Capet (+1599), a French theologian and canon, was born at Lille. He received the degree of doctor at Louvain, where he taught philosophy"
