Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter V, § 3. Groups of displacements generated by reflections

Let C be a chamber of E and S the set of reflections with respect to the walls of C. Let w∈Ww \in W and let (s1,…,sq)(s_1, \ldots, s_q) be a reduced decomposition of w with respect to S. If x∈C‾x \in \overline{C} is fixed by w, then sj(x)=xs_j(x) = x for all j: this follows from Prop. 1 above and Cor. 1 of Prop. 7 of Chap. IV, § 1.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
