Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Queen of Hearts (Some months ago a gentleman changed to discover a quality of loose manuscript in a secret drawer of a desk which he had bought at auction. This, out of mere idle curiosity, he sorted and arranged, becoming so interested in its perusal while placing it in order that he concluded to edit it for publication. It was claimed by the auctioneer who sold it that the desk had been the property of a celebrated actress, but he was unable to furnish the lady´s name; nor was it possible for the purchaser to identify her by means of her manuscript, as throughout her history she had made use of initials only in referring both to persons and places. Himself a man of wide acquaintance with the stage as well as the social world, Mr. J. considered that where he was baffled in an attempt at identification others were not likely to be more successful. Therefore, having taken the additional precaution to change the initials of the names - which he filled in, according to his fancy - as they occurred in the manuscript, he has thought it no harm to offer these memoirs to the public.)
