The crowd staged its own mad scene in salvos of cheers and applause and finally a standing ovation as Miss Sutherland took curtain call after curtain call following a fantastic `` Mad Scene '' created on her own and with the help of the composer and the other performers.

What followed the outburst brought almost breathless silence as Miss Sutherland revealed her mastery of a voice probably unique among sopranos today.

Miss Sutherland first sang Lucia at Covent Garden in 1959.

The portraits in the Hall include the work of notable artists ; among the portraits of principals is Sir J. J. Shannon's portrait of Dame Elizabeth, Philip de Laszlo's of Miss Jex-Blake, Sir Rodrigo Moynihan's of Dr Grier and Maud Sumner's of Miss Sutherland.

Set in 1887, the story revolves around the case of Miss Mary Sutherland, a woman with a substantial income from the interest on a fund set up for her.

Miss Sutherland only knows that he works in an office in Leadenhall Street, but nothing more specific than that.

The climax of the sad liaison comes when Mr. Angel abandons Miss Sutherland at the altar on their wedding day.

Holmes, noting all these things, Hosmer Angel's description, and the fact that he only seems to meet with Miss Sutherland while her disapproving youngish stepfather, James Windibank, is out of the country on business, reaches a conclusion quite quickly.

Holmes does advise his client to forget " Mr. Angel "; Miss Sutherland refuses to take Holmes ' advice and vows to remain faithful to " Angel " until he reappears – for at least ten years.

Far from Windibank's conduct not having broken any law, he has left himself wide open to Miss Sutherland suing him for breach of promise and certain to win – as the proposal had been made by a man who was already married, and her step-father at that.

This could, however, make sense on the assumption that Windibank was not only interested in Miss Sutherland's money but also in her person ; that the bogus engagement covered an illicit and effectively incestous which might have been mutual, even if not ; that Miss Sutherland on at least some level knew all along who ' Hosmer Angel ' truly was ; and that Holmes was acting in her best interest in not bringing all this out in the open and avoiding a traumatic and shattering breakup of her family in the glare of sensational publicity.
