George Washington Cable (1844-1925) was an American novelist
notable for the realism of his portrayals of Creole life in his
native Louisiana. His most important works are "Old Creole Days,"
"The Grandissimes," and "Madame Delphine."
Here dwelt, sixty years ago and more, one Delphine Carraze; or, as
she was commonly designated by the few who knew her, Madame
Delphine. That she owned her home, and that it had been given her
by the then deceased companion of her days of beauty, were facts so
generally admitted as to be, even as far back as that sixty years
ago, no longer a subject of gossip. She was never pointed out by
the denizens of the quarter as a character, nor her house as a
"feature."
