Sara Day discussed the 25-year extramarital relationship of author and Unitarian minister Edward Everett Hale with Harriet Freeman, a woman of means with a strong interest in the sciences and nature conservation. Day discovered the affair while doing research in the 3,000 letters archived at the Library of Congress between Hale and the far younger Freeman. The letters were partly written in code, but Day persisted until she found a key that revealed the proverbial Rosetta Stone the secrets.
