 ''[[L'Héritière]]'' ("The heir") is a "comédie-vaudeville" by Eugène Scribe (1791-1861) and Germain Delavigne (1790-1868)
 First performed at the Théâtre du Gymnase Dramatique in Paris 20 December, 1823. Clearly popular it was published in Paris by Pollet, 1823, in Brussels by Dupon, 1827 and again in Paris by Barba, 1834.
-It was possibly derived from one of two 19th century French plays called ''[[Le Testament]]'', the one a one act comedy by Bernard Le Bovier de Fontenelle()[] published in 1751 or the other a vaudeville style one act play ("comédie en un acte et en prose, mêlée de vaudevilles") by  J.B. Radet ()[] from 1797. The latter is the most likely candidate, from internal evidence.
