The 2700 officer. and men who went
tc. France with General Doyen were
organized Into companies of 250 men.
Tlie command was one almost entirely
composed or veterans. A great many of
thl- men who were under General Doyen
were veterans of the Domlnlcnti, Haitian,
and Vein 'Cruz opetatlons, and In this
connection it may he recalled that dur

FINE LEADER OF MEN
SAYS MA J. PATTERSON
Major General Doyen was well known
In Philadelphia. Pi lor to the Spaulsh
Amerlcnn War he was commandant of
the United Stnles Marine Corps at the
League Island Navy, Yard, nnd later
wns a frequent visitor to this city, where
he hnd a large acquaintance among
brother-oftlcers and civilians. When In
formed of General Doyen's death Major
Samuel A. XV. Patterson, In charge of
the marine recruiting station for the
Philadelphia district at 1409 Arch street,
said:
"General Doyen vvas an excellent of
ficer and a great leader of men. As fc.
dlsclpllnarian he had few equals, and it
was to his untiring energy in this re
spect that the Marine Corpsfevves much
of Its far-heralded reputation for peer
less efficiency and morale. He was
greatly beloved by officers and men alike,
and his loss will be a distinct blow to
the service."
