Anyway, you'll do fine!

 

Notice, nobody answered my question in my intro: What's Louis a saint of?

 

And in some way, i regard this thread as a failure since i got no answer...

Louis was founded in 1764 as a French fur-trading village by Pierre Laclede. He named the city “St. Louis” for King Louis IX, the crusader king who was the patron saint of Laclede's then ruler King Louis XV.
