Quelle délicatesse

Lord and Countess Cholmondeley go to Paris and while there, his wife dies suddenly but peacefully. Intensely proper, he wishes to purchase a black hat (un chapeau noir) for mourning. With his Etonian French he mistakenly asks the concierge where he can purchase a "un capeau noir" (a black condom).(Où puis-je acheter d'un capeau noir?
The concierge asks "Pourquoi?"
The milord answers "Ma dame est morte."
the concierge kisses his fingers in a typical Gallic gesture and says
"Quelle délicatesse!"
