Excerpt from Old Mr. Davenant's Money
As the years passed the phantom confidante ceased to exist in Lena's imagination, but the habit of writing down the small happenings of her still lonely and uneventful life remained. And because of gratitude to this once friend in need, Lena never forgot to inscribe the name of her childhood's comforter upon the cover of each new record-book.
