CABIROLLE, son of the preceding.  In 1830 he was Dr. Minoret’s coachman at Nemours.  Later he was coachman for Savinien de Portenduere, after the vicomte’s marriage with Ursule Mirouet. [Ursule Mirouet.]

CABIROLLE (Madame), wife of Cabirolle senior.  Born Antoinette Patris in 1786, of a poor family of La Bresse.  Widow of a workman named Pierre alias Bougival; she was usually designated by the latter name.  After having been Ursule Mirouet’s nurse, she became Dr. Minoret’s servant, marrying Cabirolle about 1837.

CABIROLLE (Madame), mother of Florentine, the danseuse.  Formerly janitress on rue Pastourelle, but living in 1820 with her daughter on rue de Crussol in a modest affluence assured by Cardot the old silk-dealer, since 1817.  According to Girondeau, she was a woman of sense.

CABIROLLE (Agathe-Florentine), known as Florentine; born in 1804.  In 1817, upon leaving Coulon’s class, she was discovered by Cardot, the old silk-merchant, and established by him with her mother in a relatively comfortable flat on rue de Crussol.  After having been featured at the Gaite theatre, in 1820, she danced for the first time in a spectacular drama entitled “The Ruins of Babylon."* Immediately afterwards she succeeded Mariette as premiere danseuse at the theatre of the Porte-Saint-Martin.  Then in 1823 she made her debut at the Opera in a trio skit with Mariette and Tullia.  At the time when Cardot “protected” her, she had for a lover the retired Captain Girondeau, and was intimate with Philippe Bridau, to whom she gave money when in need.  In 1825 Florentine occupied Coralie’s old flat, now for some three years, and it was at this place that Oscar Husson lost at play the money entrusted to him by his employer, Desroches the attorney, and was surprised by his uncle, Cardot.
