The Emperor Napoleon of France marries Josephine de
Beauharnais, in a civil ceremony in Paris, France, Europe. It
is said that on their wedding night, there was no sexual encounter
because Josephine's pug dog, Fortune, bit Napoleon on the shin, somewhat dampening his ardour. The 1957 Johnnie Ray hit, Yes Tonight, Josephine, is clearly inspired by this famous
incident. (1796)
