Henriette into the world. He sacrificed everything to make his son a
gentleman, and the bad conduct of the lad hastened his end. La Debacle.
LEVASSEUR (HENRIETTE), daughter of the preceding, and twin sister of

battle of Sedan, Henriette, fearing that her husband was in danger
at Bazeilles, where he had gone to look after a house he had recently
bought, decided to follow him there.
