The dedications read: "Alla mia grande Santuzza nella tournée americana con animo grato e per ricordo - New-York 17.X.'902 .- Alla ottima artista Signora Bianchini-Cappelli per ricordo grato della tournée americana, grato non per l'impresa, ma per le Sue interpretazione artistiche che io non dimenticherò - Boston, 24.XI.'902." The musical excerpts are from Cavalleria ("Voi lo sapete o mamma, prima d'andar soldato"), Zanetto ("Non andar da Silvia, pagare il pano"), and Guglielmo Ratcliff ("D'indole dolce e mansueta da prima"). The latter does not actually seem to read "dolce", as per the libretto. (prob. 1902)
