[4] Given the strategic position of Liège almost enclosed by Burgundian possessions, Louis was a poor choice because his behavior quickly led to troubles, permitting French meddling.

[6] Marc de Bade was put in place by the Liégeois, who fought under Raes van Heers, restored the bishop, but Liège lost its sovereignty.

In the summer of 1468, Louis was back in his prince-bishopric, after a papal legate had intervened, but was captured at Tongeren by a raiding party from Liège, at that time again asserting independence of Charles the Bold of Burgundy.

In 1477, Charles the Bold was killed, and his daughter and heiress Mary of Burgundy was forced to sign the Peace of Saint-Jacques, consolidating the bishop's position but returning sovereignty to Liège.

"[12] A painting entitled The Bishop of Liege slain by order of William de la Marck, the "Wild Boar of Ardennes" by J. Franklin was published in Fisher's Drawing Room Scrap Book, 1838 (engraved by E. Portbury) with a poetical illustration by Letitia Elizabeth Landon, as Death of Louis of Bourbon.
