Baltazo

One of the demons who possessed a young woman of Laon, Nicole Aubry, in the year 1566. He went to sup with her husband, under the pretext of freeing her from demon-possession, which he did not accomplish. It was observed that at supper he did not drink, which shows that demons are averse to water.

Baltus, Jean François : A learned Jesuit who died in 1743. In his Reply to the History of the Oracles of Fontenelle, published in Strasbourg in 1709, he affirmed that the oracles of the ancients were the work of demons, and that they were reduced to silence during the mission of Christ upon the earth.
