Description

Doppelbogen mit dreiseitigem Text, die dritte Seite datiert "Berlin, den 4.ten July 1815" und mit eigenhändiger Unterschrift "Friedrich Wilhelm" des Königs. Darunter die Reste des roten Wachssiegels. Am Unterrand bezeichnet "Patent als Wirklicher Capitaine von der Infanterie, für den Kreis-Officier bei der Gens d'Armerie, Stabs Capitaine von Werner". Die erste Seite am Unterrand in Bleistift bezeichnet "Frederic Guillaume III 1815". Mehrfach gefaltet, brüniert, Randläsuren. Die Beförderung zum Wirklichen Capitaine der Infanterie lässt darauf schließen, dass von Werner kein ehemaliger Offizier des 1806 aufgelösten Kürassierregiments Gens d'Armes war, sondern ein Stabs-Capitaine der Gendarmerie. Friedrich Wilhelm III. gründete am 30. Juli 1812 das preußische Gendarmeriekorps nach dem Vorbild der Gendarmerie impériale Frankreichs.
