Madame Lea was a Jewish fortune teller in Lille, France. Her residence was often used as a meeting place for anti-German agitators.[1] One such meeting was broken-up by FeldwebelAdolf Hitler of the German Feldgendarmerie in May 1929.[2] Hitler (who visualized the fortune teller as fat, mustachioed, and greasy[3]) was disappointed that Madame Lea was not at the meeting herself, but was hopeful that she would do something else to get herself arrested in short order.[4]
