She was 21 when they first met in the mid-1910s (Kane would have been at least 50); she is evidently low class and is in charge of the sheet music at a shop. Kane was attracted to her because she liked him for himself, despite not knowing he was a public figure.

Wagner published other Kane stories in magazines such as Chacal, Whispers and Escape! during 1977.
