Great reading. You left one important line out. Right before the last line It should read ..."and did not even know there had been one. He stood amazed at Josephine's piercing cry; at Richard' quick motion to screen him from the view of his wife." BUT RICHARD WAS TOO LATE. "When the doctors came they said she had died of heart disease-of joy that kills."

@Rlikeapirate— there's evidently some discussion on her pronunciation. My professors at university all said "CHO-pin" for her and "Show-PAN" for the pianist. I think it may be the same as Dumbledore pronouncing "Beaux Batons" as "Bow-Battons"--sometimes it's on purpose and sometimes it's ignorance. Owing to the time and the location of the author, the mispronunciation of her last name (CHO-pin) makes some sense.
