“Dear friend, Will your first be Tuesday? This seems unlikely to me. Can we agree to dinner for that day. Answer me quickly, please. Another thing: Lafontaine begs me to ask you for two bad seats for his wife and his sister, anywhere, on the evening of the dress rehearsal. You will tell me if it is possible. My regards to you both. Alphonse Daudet. »
