Chapel of Louis of Male, 1383-1384
He was listed as clerk in the court of Louis de Male by April 1383, and a month later he was made canon at the church of Dendermonde (Termonde), on 25.5.1383. As clerk of Louis’s court, he remained employed up to Louis’s interment on 28.2.1384: on that date he was formally released from his duties along with the other members of Louis’s court chapel (Wright 1979, p. 56). In between this and being recruited into Philip the Bold’s court, he and the former members of Louis’s court chapel were given 80 francs each to provide for their personal needs (id., p.187, document 44: "pour faire leurs depens et avoir leurs neccessitez").

Chapel of Burgundy, 1384-1404
He was engaged at Philip the Bold’s court as a clerk on 14.4.1384, along with other members from Louis de Male’s court. During his time there, he received money from Philip the Bold to obtain housing, and he was promoted to the position of chaplain on 2.3.1385. In the same year, he also held a canonicate at the church of St. Barthélemy in Béthune. He was made canon of the cathedral of Amiens by October 1395, and he remained in the court of Burgundy until the chapel was disbanded on 16.6.1404 upon Philip’s death and interment (Wright 1979).
