CAPITOULATE, an appellation given to the several quarters or districts of the city of Thoulouse, each under the direction of a capitoul; much like the wards of London, under their aldermen. Thoulouse is now divided into eight capitoulates or quarters, which are subdivided into moillans, each of which has its tithing-man, whose business is to inform the capitoul of what passes in his tithing, and to inform the inhabitants of the tithing of the orders of the capitoul.
