Patti nml Wllllum I. The story of Adelina Patti's first en counter with EmiH'ror William I. Is worth repeating. It was at Homburg that the meeting took place, and the diva was then quite a young girl.

No. no! I wouldn't think of It! Tell him so.” William I., ever good natured, laugh ed heartily over her ultimatum, which greatly amused him. The last time his majesty saw I’attl was In Berlin, and he was then a dying man. When she called upon him at his box lie wel comed her with bis most genial smile. “Ah,” he said, “you remember Hom burg? But you don't uiiud waiting upon me now.” For Good Reasons.
