"I am not well, and if it were not for the new play, I would have asked for 8 days' rest. So, I beg you [...] don't make me play on Friday if you don't want to disturb anything at the next day's show. I can't really play these two days"... - She begs him not to play her on Wednesday: "I'm hoarse this morning, and yesterday I could hardly finish the performance. On Saturday we'll play Figaro, or something else, but not Valérie, because my voice won't allow it. I was horribly embarrassed the other day"... Attached is a L.A.S. to M. Marchais, business letter (1p. ¼ in-8, adr.).
