Wikipedia description:
Divisional-General Charles Victoire Emmanuel Leclerc (French pronunciation: [ʃaʁl viktwaʁ emanɥɛl ləklɛʁ]; 17 March 1772 – 2 November 1802) was a French Army officer who served during the French Revolutionary Wars. He was the husband of Pauline Bonaparte, the sister of Napoleon. In 1801, Leclerc was sent to Saint-Domingue, where invasion forces under his command captured and deported Haitian leader Toussaint Louverture to France as part of an unsuccessful attempt to reassert French control over Saint-Domingue and reinstate slavery in the colony. Leclerc died of yellow fever during the campaign.
