Lectures of Lola Montez

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The right Of defining one's position seems to be a very sacred privilege in America, and I must avail myself Of it, in entering upon the novel business Of this lecture. Several leading and influential journals have more than once called for a lecture On Lola Montez, and as it is reasonably supposed that I am about as well acquainted With that eccentric indi vidual (as the newspapers call her) as any lady in this country, the task Of such an undertaking has fallen upon me.
