A number of those present wcro people - plo who had heard the lacly years ago and to vvliom her appearance was a source of more hap usual pleasure. Mrs. Siddous still de serves the claim to bo a beautiful woman , hough she in not of the spirstuclle order she vas when many of those who enjoyed her reading lust night , suw her first. She still losscsses , however , an Attractive set of feat- ircs stamped with rt-miirkublo Intelligence , und giving evidence of thd'xvondcrful talent vhlch has forbears made the lady a welcome Iguro on the boards.
