Remembering General Baron Charles Marie Athanase de Charette de La Contrie

b. 3 September 1832 — d. 9 October 1911
In memory of General Baron Charles Marie Athanase de Charette de La Contrie, commander of the Papal Zouaves, 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.
