# Marjorie Daw

By Thomas Bailey Aldrich.

"Marjorie Daw" by Thomas Bailey Aldrich is an epistolary short story first published in 1869. Through an exchange of letters between two young friends, one invents a charming neighbor named Marjorie Daw as a playful diversion for his bedridden correspondent. As the fictional accounts grow more elaborate, the recipient becomes genuinely infatuated with the imaginary woman, forcing his friend to confront the consequences of his well-intentioned deception.
