Excerpt from My Life of Song It was at the conclusion of my recital in Leeds, England, that I first heard the solemn news. A young journalist, hatless and breathless, rushed excitedly into my dressing-room exclaiming: "Madame Tetrazzini, Patti is dead. What are your impressions of her death?" All day I had been uneasy. While I was singing to that crowded hall, and even as I responded to the generous applause of the audience, I was conscious of an insistent foreboding of an impending loss. Mothers have spoken to me of similar presentiments experienced about the time that a tragedy has happened to a beloved son or daughter, wives have told me how, during the late war, they knew intuitively of the death of their husbands long before the news arrived from the Department of War.
