CAPITULATE, 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 moulans, each of which has its tithingman, 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.
