James Frampton in London, England - June, 1827, at night

from Letter from James Frampton to his sister, Mary Frampton, June 1827, page 328:

Moreover, Pasta performs ‘Medea’ on Thursday next. It is the last time that opera is to be performed this season, and I should like to see it again. I went last night to see ‘Maria Stuarta,’ which was very heavy, though a duet was pretty, and Pasta’s acting before she was beheaded was good.
