GENERAL AIVELLE, VERDUN HERL, i Was Brave Officer and Beloved by His Soldiers Paris, March 22.—General Itobert George elle who comnianded the I'reneh treops at Verdun during_the L lurepean war is dead. ¥ General ltobert George elle, Lirought to the notice ot the world by the battle of! Verdun, was regarded simply a% a good artillery officer be- fore the war. There were so many rood artillery officers that Nivelle was | still & colonel when the world conflict Legan. First a general of brigade and then seneral of division in the fall of 1915, Nivelle proved his capacity for one of the most important commands on the western frent by his brilliant cam- “paigning, and was the natural choice of the general staff to continue the work begun By General Petain before Verdun when the latter was moved to 4 higher eémmand. < Born at Tylle, Oct, 15, 18 #came of a family of soldiers. His paternal grandfather went through the campaign of the first empire, re- Nivelle tiring as a lieutenant standard-bearer, | while his father was a captain in the regular army gnd a colonel of the na- tional guard at Dunkirk, Nivelle went through the Polytech- nic school, the Fontainebleau artillery school, and the superior war college. He then followed the usual career of | a French soldier, with stages in Africa d China, later serving on the gen- | staff of the Algerian division, fn July, 1914, still with the rank of col- onel, he commanded the fifth regiment of artillery at Besancon, at the head of which he distinguished himself in the early stages of the war and won several citations, His regiment tpok a brilliant part inthe battle of the Marne, whereupon Neville was made a grand commander in the legion of honor. Still a colone! commanding artillery on the line of the Aisne, he was described as “the most accomplished type of command- ing officer,”” by an eminent literary man writing for a London newspaper, “Tall, robust, an intrepid horseman, with a fine head and a noble expre sion; somewhat grave, quiet, and with an astonishing calm and self-posses- slon under fire, he is respected, ad- mired and adored by his men General Nivelle left to no one else the duty of reconnoitering the enemy ard judging thé effects of the fire of his batteries on their trenches, Shells were always the thickest where Nive elle was standing, and all his men realized that none of them were as much exposed as he, Officers around him instinctively lowered their heads when the screeching of a shell wa head, but Nivelle's head never was bowed, “What difference does four or five inches make under such cire cumstances?” he once asked, In action General Nivelle was alert, quick and gesticulating, giving the impression that he had a great re. serve of energy, both physical aund mental. He also had the Peputation of being a strict disciplinarian and possibly the greatest gunner in the army. He seemed to have the closest acquaintance with every man he met in the trenches, and niver was at a loss to call each of his soldiers by name-—no small accomplishment con- sidering the number of men under hig command. He took the greatest in- ®erest in camp detail, and was always solloitous concerning the welfare of his “ehildren” as he ealled his sol- diers. The mother of General Nivelle was English, hence he learned to speak hor language fluently when he was a child. He retained throughout his life the greatest admiration for the Rritish and mever tired of memorizing old- time Engllsh war verse. “The Raitle of the Baltie” and “The Burial of Sir Johm Moore” were his favorites, Nivells was a sturdy, semi-blonde type of Frenchman, with plentiful hair, a closely e¢ropped mustache, hard, ealculating eyes and a vise-like mouth and chin. When made a gen- eral he was (8 years of age—one of the youngest men in the Krench army to reach such a high office, to which he was appointed over the heads of many of his superiors.| Visited U. S, In 1920 During 1920, General Nivells vfsited | the United Staten to represent France at the tercentenary celebration of the [ American Mayflower council. He made a number of speeches on behalf of Franco-American unity; was enter- tained by government officlals in ‘Washington, and visited West Point befors returning to France in the late summer of 1921, Mrs, Susan Mackay Cruise, Mrs. Sugan Mackay Cruise, aged 66, of 259 Eim strect Meriden, died yesterday at her home after 10 days fliness of pneumonia.
