Note 2 — Chapter I · THE THEATRE OF ROBERT-HOUDIN.[2]
Professor Hoffmann translation
In the original a chapter entitled “Introduction dans la demeure de l’Auteur” is here introduced, but being merely a reprint of a similar chapter in Les Secrets de la Prestidigitation et de la Magie, which has been already translated in our English version of that work, it is not here repeated.—Ed.
