Note 5 — ERNEST ALFRED VIZETELLY (continued 3)

It was as the Paris correspondent of various English newspapers that the writer became acquainted with a good many French literary men. A reference to the Paris letters in the first volumes of the "Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News" will show that the writer at one time dealt largely with the French stage. In that connection he was fortunate enough to secure the favour of Dumas fils to whom he was indebted for many little kindnesses.
