Joffre in Br'kl'n [i.e., Brooklyn] (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Richard Norton said:
    Marshal Joseph Jacques Césaire Joffre, G.C.B., O.M. (French pronunciation: ​[ʒɔsɛf ʒɔfʁ]; 12 January 1852 – 3 January 1931), was a French general, who served as Commander-in-Chief of French forces on the Western Front from the start of World War I until the end of 1916. He is best known for regrouping the retreating allied armies to defeat the Germans at the strategically decisive First Battle of the Marne in September 1914. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Joffre JOFFRE UNVEILS LAFAYETTE STATUE. Viviani Orator at the Dedication of the Harteau Monument in Prospect Park. GIFTS TO THE FRENCHMEN. In Central Park Ceremony Joffre Receives Golden Miniature of Liberty Statue. Ceremony in Central Park. His First Formal Speech. Guard of Soldiers. Brooklyn had its opportunity yesterday to pay homage to Marshal Joffre, M. Viviani, and the others of the French War Commission, and it offered to the visitors a tribute that would have exceeded the welcome accorded the day before by Manhattan, had that been possible.
