 Chapter 20 - Bernadotte
John Baptiste Julius Bernadotte, destined to be one of the greatest, and by far the most fortunate of Napoleon's lieutenants, was born at Pau, the capital of Bearne, Jan. 26th, 1764.
In electing Bernadotte, the States were influenced, first, by his high reputation throughout Europe; and next, by the hope that such an election would be agreeable to Napoleon, and transform the most formidable of their enemies into a steadfast friend.
The finishing hand was put to Bernadotte's indignation, the unprovoked seizure of Pomerania, which, to render it the more insulting, Napoleon had fixed for the prince's birthday (Jan. 26th, 1812), but which could not be carried into effect before the morning of the succeeding day.
