On his twenty-first birthday, David's sister gifted him a watch that played a twenty-nine note melody reminiscent of one of Mozart's. The watch was about a century old and his father acquired it while travelling in Switzerland. He treasured the gift, and kept it with him every day until he left to fight in France and gave the watch to Mary for safekeeping until he returned.
