[139] Fétis says that Zyka was born about 1730. But his birth must have

been earlier, for according to Fürstenau’s account (History of Music and

the Theatre at the Electoral Court of Saxony), he had been already, in

1743, appointed to the Dresden band, though Fétis erroneously makes him

a member only in 1756.

[140] Michael Kleophas, Count Oginski, was born at Gurow, near Warsaw,

on September 25, 1765, and died in Florence on October 31, 1833. He was

High Treasurer of Lithuania.

[141] Not on September 2, as occasionally given.
