Patti had been honored by a visit from the late Prince Henry of Battenberg, who was staying at Clyne Castle, and who came out to lunch accompanied by Count Gleichen, Lord Koyston (now the Earl of Hard- wicke), and other friends. The Queen's son-in- law witnessed a repetition of the garden scene from ^ 'Faust, " and altogether spent a most agreeable afternoon. A few days later we all went over to Swansea to take part in the annual concert given by Mme. Patti in aid of the local charities. The jo...urney each way assumed the character of a tri- umphal progress, the entire route from the station to the concert-hall being lined by dense crowds. It was touching to witness the eagerness of the hum- ble folk— men, women, and children— to catch a glimpse of the illustrious vocalist, who once every year came from her mountain home to aid the in- stitution that succored their needy and suffering. The concert itself was memorable because on this occasion, for the first time in her life, the famous songstress delivered as an encore the soul-stirring strains of the Welsh national air, ''Land of my Fathers ' ' ; and when, at her request, her enthusias- tic auditors joined in the chorus, the effect was simply electrifying.
