Remembering Henri du Vergier, Comte de la Rochejaquelein

The Death of Henri de La Rochejaquelein by Alexandre Bloch
"Friends, if I advance, follow me! If I retreat, kill me! If I die, avenge me!" ~ Henri du Vergier de la Rochejaquelein
In memory of Henri du Vergier, Comte de la Rochejaquelein (30 August 1772 – 28 January 1794), Généralissime of the Catholic and Royal Army during the wars in the Vendée, we pray for the happy repose of his soul. 

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen
