he was on. La Pierrière said he was on the side of
Parquet but was powerless to act. He promised to do what Le Fort proposed. Le Fort told him that the next day, 6 August, Beaufort would arrive with his co-rebels and force him to sign a document. He should do so, then propose that they drink the health of the king. While they were doing so he should give the sign, and Le Fort's men would fall on them. Everything happened as predicted. Beaufort arrived with twenty accomplices. After signing the document and drinking a toast to the king, La Pierrière raised his gun as if to fire into the air, then lowered it, fired at Beaufort's head and killed him. At this signal Le Fort's men burst into the house and killed the others. La Pierrière sent word of what had happened to Guadeloupe the next day. Thoisy sent an officer to Martinique who published a general amnesty dated 23 September 1646 for everyone who had been involved in the recent disturbances. Le Pierriere again took an oath to the king and his lieutenant general Thoisy.

A resolution was drawn up and signed by La Pierrière, de Rossillon, de la Renardière, de Beaujeu, de la Haye and Lefort, who was to make the arrest. De le Housaye's name was added with a note that he had not signed because he did not know how to write. On 17 January 1647 Thoisy was arrested and delivered to Poincy's men in exchange for Du Parquet. Du Parquet was released on 6 February. He returned to Martinique on 9 February 1677.

In January 1646 Thoisy, with the support of du Parquet, led an expedition against Poincy and captured Poincy's two nephews. Poincy's forces, supported by militia provided by Warner, then defeated the company from Martinique. Thoisy escaped to Guadeloupe. Du Parquet took refuge first with the

Parquet embarked 150 men on three ships under La Pierrière, who descended on Saint
Vincent and for eight days attacked the Caribs and pillaged, burned or destroyed all they could lay their hands on before returning the Martinique. Hostilities then broke out on Martinique, where the Caribs at first gained the upper hand before being driven back to the eastern part of the island.

Parquet's partisans and his wife Marie
Bonnard were concerned by La Pierrière's equivocal attitude, which served to encourage the sedition. Le Fort decided the solution was to kill Beaufort and his fellows, and if necessary to kill La Pierrière. He went to La Pierrière and demanded to know whose side

La Pierrière was interim governor of
Martinique from February 1646 to January 1647 during the absence of du Parquet. De Poincy wanted to stir up the people of Martinique against Thoisy, and prepared a document that violently libelled Thoisy personally, and the company of which he was the instrument.
389:
Around the start of 1654 the master of a ship subjected a Carib of Saint
Vincent to a severe punishment on the pretext that one of his sailors had been murdered. The Caribs took this as sufficient cause to declare war against the French. The few French who were living on Saint Vincent were killed.

On 16 and 28 October 1646 the king ordered Poincy and Thoisy to exchange prisoners, thus implicitly giving Poincy an amnesty for his revolt since he was opposed to the company and its abuses rather than opposed to the king. In
November 1646 Houël started a revolt against Thoisy, claiming that his
