What happened to Hemadpant, the original author, and how did his writing habits impact the completion of the Shri Sai Satcharitra?

According to Chapter 53, the original author, Hemadpant, passed away suddenly, leaving everyone grieved and the book without its promised concluding summary. This chapter provides insight into his character, describing him as very frugal and skillful. He disliked waste so much that he wrote the chapters on scraps of paper and then gave those same scraps directly to the printer. After his death, his son, Gajanan, had to sort through these vast records written on scraps to provide the necessary material for another author to finally complete the work.
