Excerpt from Day: Her Year in New York "I am so tired of doing the usual thing!" Day said. From her corner where she habitually bent above her clattering typewriter, the elderly stenographer looked up with an ill-suppressed smile. "When I die, " Day continued, half to herself, half to the surrounding walls of the office, "it should be written on my tomb that I fell sick of doing all the trite old things. Oh, dear, I wish he would come!" she added, with a great yawn which she made no effort to hide. The stenographer's eyes dropped back to her work, lest in their depths a lurking gleam should betray her amusement. Day Argyle's vigorous young strength scarcely marked her as for a premature tomb, her dainty alertness and the happy curves of her scarlet lips gave the lie to her temporary repinings. Whatever its source, Day's boredom was obviously but skin deep. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
