Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HEG-HIG
HERZOG, HANS (18191894) , Swiss general, was
born
  at Aarau. He became a Swiss artillery
lieutenant
  in 1840, and then spent six years in travelling (visiting
England
  among other countries), before, he became a partner in his father's business in 1846. In 1847 he saw his first active service (as artillery captain) in the short Swiss Sonderbund war. In 186o he abandoned mercantile pursuits for a purely military career, becoming colonel and inspector-general of the Swiss artillery. In 187o he was
commander
 -in-
chief
  of the Swiss army, which guarded the Swiss frontier, in the Jura, during the Franco-
German
  War, and in
February
  1871, as such, concluded the
Convention
  of Verrieres with General Clinchant for the disarming and the interning of the remains of Bourbaki's army, when it took
refuge
  in Switzerland. In 1875 he became the
commander
 -in-
chief
  of the Swiss artillery, which he did much to reorganize, helping also in the reorganization of the other branches of the Swiss army. He died in 1894 at his native
town
  of Aarau. (W. A. B. C.)
