[4] She was the eldest child of the day labourers Françoise Bérréat and Jean Louis Le Clerch, the latter of whom died while she was still young.

[9] There they stayed in a bungalow known as "Holly Oak", where they provided a hiding place for Édouard Carouy [fr] while he was being trailed by a journalist.

[11] Following the robbery, on 10 January, police launched a raid on the house of Louis Rimbault, where Le Clerch and Metge had stayed.

[14] On 6-7 May 1912, police arrested Le Clerch and her new companion, another illegalist anarchist named Edouard Forget, on Rue Du Couédic [fr].

She later moved to Rue des Panoyaux [fr], where on 9 November, she was again arrested together with her new companion Indalecio Ibañez, charged with having attacked a post office in Bezons.

[21] Metge himself confessed to participating in the burglary in Les Pavillons-sous-Bois, and admitted to having given Le Clerch some earrings and 1,300 francs which he claimed to have been given by "a friend", who he refused to name.

[25] On 28 March 1914, she testified in the case against Indalecio Ibañez, but her defense of her companion was unsuccessful and he was given a life sentence of penal labour.
