For Franz, who had married the song composer, Marie Hinrichs, lost his hearing and drifted to the brink of despair before a series of concerts rescued him from starvation. Heinrich Marschner was married three times, his latter two wives being vocalists. Thalberg married a daughter of the great singer Lablache; she was the widow of the painter Boucher, whose exquisite confections every one knows.

Her cantata, "Die Heilige Nacht," for soloists and chorus, is often heard. Marie Hinrichs Franz, wife of the great composer, was herself a song-writer of exceptional merit, and deserves more than a passing mention. In the field of organ music, Clotilde Kainerstorfer is the leader to-day.

Hinrichs had returned to the director's stand in the orchestra and was raising his baton. Arrived at the middle entrance, Appleton raised his hat to those with whom he had been talking, as if not intending to go in just then.
