The capitulation of General Jacques Maurepas and his 9th Demi-Brigade on 27 February, 1802, to French forces under the command of General Edme Desfourneaux.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: In late February, 1802, after repulsing numerous assaults on his positions at and around Trois Pavillons, south of Port-de-Paix, Jacques Maurepas and his 9th Demi-Brigade found themselves surrounded by two divisions of French troops several times their strength. With one third of his men having surrendered to Leclerc's army a few days before, and with no way, Maurepas turned himself and his men in.
