brief recapitulation, for the benefit Of our
younger folks, in particular. Adelina
Patti, the singer, was born in Madrid in
1913, and went to America while very
young, making he" first appearance in
public in 1859 in Lucia di Lamemoor",
in New York. Her marvellous voice and
brilliant execution made her Immediate
ly famous. In 1861 she vent to England
and made a radiant debut at Jovent Gar
den in the parts of 'Amina', ViOletta',
'Zerlina', and Martha. From that time
for many years, she was the most popu-
lar prima donna of the time, appearing in
London, Paris, Berlin, Rome, Viel ma,
etc, with triumphant success. In 1868
she married the Marquis de Caux, but
was divorced from him and married Sig
nor Nicolina. We are not quite certain
as to the cause o. termination Of the lat
ter marriage, but in recent years when
quite an elderly person, though repre-
sented as retaining all the bloom of her
youth, she married Baron Cedestrom, a
young Russian nobleman. Of late years
she has practically lived in retirement at
her castle-home, Craig y Nos, in Wales,
only occasionally reappea ing at concerts.
Her last appearance before the public
was at a FAREWELL concert In the Albert
Hall, London in 1906.
