It was awarded by a council of Society members to its most deserving and dedicated members, in three grades: I Class Gold, II Class Silver and III Class Bronze.
2. Henri Sensine was born in 1854 and was a French writer and grammarian. After having fought during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870, he served for ten years as the secretary of Élisée Reclus. He settled in Lausanne, Switzerland around 1885, where he taught in boarding schools. He became involved in the French community of the Canton of Vaud, especially during the First World War, and received the Legion of Honour. He died on June 2, 1937 and bequeathed his library of nearly 2,500 works to the Cantonal and University Library of Lausanne. He is the author of grammar books and French language courses, as well as numerous articles, and of a "Chrestomathie", a vast anthology of French poetry.
