Lind sang are arranging to celebrate

Jenny Lind was born in Stockholm
of humble parents She sang from

interested in her. At IL, her voice en-.
tirely failed. Four years later it came
| back and her remarkable career began
Her first operate role was Alice in
| Meyerbeer' Robert lie Diable" Hav-
ing been acclaimed in her own country
and in Norway, she carried her con
quests to the continent and to Eng
| land
She was probably the most talked of
person in public life in all Europe when
Barnum, without having seen her or
heard her, persuaded her to make a
tour of the United States. No sooner
was the contract signed than the new
impressario, according to his autobi
ography, began to prepare the public
mind for the reception of the great
songstress."
The steamer Atlantic that brought
her TO this county, was saluted at
Sandy Hook and again as she plowed
the Narrows, Forty thousand people
assembled at the landing and on the
surrounding piers to greet her Trium-
phal arches marked her pathway.
Crowds surged around her hotel and
clamored for her appearance Auctions
for the sale of tickets brought thou
sands of buyers. Genin, hatter-''a
Mad Halter" they called him paid
s225 for the first New York ticket. His
unheard Of extravaganza made him fla
nous. The highest price paid for a
single ticket was in Providence. where
the bit of pasteboard was knocked
down to Colonel Ross for $3.50.
The nightingale gave about 1875 CON
certs in this country more than IS

ences fought to gain entrance TO the
concert halls. Everywhere they stormed
her with applause and everywhere ad
mirers and charity seekers besiegcd
her Extra concerts had to be given to
satisfy the throngs and Jenny Lind
herself added more extra concerts for
charity.
People prominent in public life paid
her great honors Mayors and COVER
nors presented their compliments in
person.
Jenny Lind broke her contract with |
Barnum with 80 concerts yet to sing ~
but the great Snowman and the night |
ingale parted friends While visiting in |
Boston. she was married to Otto Gold
schmidt, composer and pianist, and
shortly thereafter, returned to Europe
In 1888, she took up her residence in
England, where she died in 1887.
There is no record of Jenny Lind's
voice, but the journals of hep time, the
few living people who heard her and

handed down all tell the same story
