I had the whole transaction down in black and white immediately.

Our arrangement is eminently satisfactory, except in one particular.
She shows a morbid distrust of writing her name at the bottom of any document which I present to her, and roundly declares she will sign nothing.

When it ceases to be her interest, she plainly threatens to leave off at a week's notice.

A difficult girl to deal with; she has found out her own value to me already.
