Mystery, magnetism, and marzipan
Scottish singer Emma Bryson travels to London determined to fulfill a deathbed promise to her mother to sing for the Queen. Her debut at a fashionable salon starts brilliantly but ends in disaster when the usually poised Emma tumbles backwards and lands on the champagne-buffed boots of Philip Henry Jamison, the earl of Blackbourne and London's most eligible bachelor.

My belief is that it is referring to the 11th of June.
That’s a story in that article, for sure.
I agree, I was fascinated by it.
