ONE:Balls were not then the crushes they afterwards became. The company was not nearly so numerous; there was plenty of room for those who were not [54] dancing to see and hear what was going on. Mme. Le Brun, however, never cared for dancing, but preferred the houses where music, acting, or conversation were the amusements. One of her favourite salons was that of the charg�� d��affaires of Saxony, M. de Rivi��re, whose daughter had married her brother Louis Vig��e. He and her sister-in-law were constantly at her house. Mme. Vig��e acted very well, was a good musician, and extremely pretty. Louis Vig��e was also a good amateur actor; no bad or indifferent acting would have been tolerated in the charades and private theatricals in which Talma, Larive, and Le Kain also took part.
