FRENCH DECORATION
CONFERRED UPON LATE
COL. CHAS. E. WEYDREGHT
A foreign decoration of unusual dis
tinction was received on the last boat
by Mrs. Emilie B. Weybrecht, wife
of the late Colonel Chas. C. Weybrecht
of Alliance, Ohio, and sister of Cal M.
Brosius of Seward. The decoration
is the Cross of Officer of the French ;
: Legion of Honor, the only order of j
I knighthood in France,
j The Cross, which has just been sent j
! from Mrs. Weybrecht’s home in Ohio, j
! was conferred upon Colonel Wey
| brecht in Brussells, June 3, 1919 by
! LVeutenant-General Fouqueron in the
' name of France “for unusual, extra
j ordinary, and distinguished service”
j rendered in France.
The Cross is a beautiful one in gold
and green and white enamel, suspend
ed on a wide scarlet silk ribbon with
a large crimson rosette in silk super
imposed upon the ribbon. On one
side of the medal is a medallion of a
liead “France” with a circle gold
I and blue lettered Republique Fran
j^aise 1870. On the other side are
two crossed French flags in enamel
with Honneur et Patrie within laurel
wreaths. The rosette designates the
rank of Officer, this rank being limit
ed and the highest honor conferred
by the French Government upon any
other than citizens of France.
The Legion of Honor was organized
by Napoleon in 1802 and its Cross is
one of the most desired decorations
in the world.
It will add interest to the local
members of the American Legion to
know the Alliance Post of the Ameri
can Legion, No. 65, is the Chas. C.
Weybrecht Post.
