réf. 016954Antoine-François Marmontel (1816-1898), pianiste, pédagogue. L.A.S., sd [1896], 3p in-12. « Chère madame et amie, J'ai été très heureux de recevoir de vos nouvelles et de savoir par vous que votre famille prospère, que vos enfants et votre cher petit fils vous donnent les douces joies que vous espériez de leurs succès. Vous regrettez, me dites-vous, le temps bien éloigné hélas, où vous veniez avec votre digne mère me souhaiter la bonne année traditionnelle. Lorsque j'y pense, il me semble que c'est loin, tant mon existence si active et si remplie s'est écoulée rapidement, et pourtant voilà que j'ai doublé le cap des 80 ans depuis juillet, mais j'ai vieilli dans les infirmités qui attristent les personnes de mon âge, toutes les facultés pensantes et agissantes sont restées intactes, et j'ai conservé la sensibilité de la jeunesse. Vous avez tout lieu d'être fière des succès de votre cher petit-fils dans les examens de droit. Dites à ce cher jurisconsulte à venir que j'ai eu une jeune roumaine, Mlle Sarmiza Bilcescu, qui a passé brillamment sa thèse de docteur en droit avec une étude très documentée sur les droits et sur les devoirs de la femme dans l'antiquité, au moyen âge, et au temps présent. Avec cela, très bonne musicienne et virtuose. Les trois mois passés près de madame votre fille ont du la rendre bien heureuse, je l'approuve très fort de s'étudier à conserver son talent de pianiste, mes conseils ont peut-être aidé à lui faire acquérir le style et la bravoure mais vos leçons suivies et dévouées, l'ont puissamment aidée à acquérir la haute virtuosité et la méthode. Remerciez pour moi, je vous prie, madame votre soeur et votre beau frère pour leur bon souvenir et assurez-les de ma cordiale sympathie. Mon cher fils vous offre ses hommages affectueux et moi l'assurance de mon inaltérable amitié. Marmontel ». Sarmiza Bilcescu (1867-1935) fut la première femme à obtenir un doctorat en droit. Elle fut avocate en son pays. Sympathique lettre. [395]
