She sent him a copy of Les Charités d'Alcippe to thank him for his article on her in the Gazette de Liège: "it is indeed gratitude that I feel in reading this interview not only devoid of the errors which so often slip into the usual reports, but where a true comprehension of the literary work is recognized" She was moved by his description of the "long fight led in the regional press in favor of literature to which, everywhere, the newspapers make less and less place. This fight for a disinterested literature, but by no means disassociated from events and life, I have the impression to lead it too ".
