she showed signs of musical taste from childhood
and at ten years OF age she commenced taking les
sons on the piano which she continued for four years
and became very accomplished performer on that
instrument. 1t was then discovered that she had A
beautiful voice, when she was advised to take vocal
instruction. and for that purpose became the pupil Of
Bagloli. Being possessed of the means of pursuing
her musical education. she became very accom-
plished artistic. =
Her studies had been pursued not as a preparation
for appearing before the public but with view tt
acquiring an elegant accomplishment for private life

were so wonderfully developed her execution SO bril-
liant, so tautless, that she was persuaded by her
friends to exhibit to the public those brilliant accom-
