I went in with him and camped in the kitchen to wait developments. I heard the town clock strike four and soon after that Mrs. Lawson came down and announced the arrival of a girl and invited me up. I found Marj. feeling very pleased with herself at having got through the business with such despatch but they all seemed to be a little worried over a hemmorage. Marj. said the baby was born sometime before Mrs. Lawson went downstairs so it must have been before four. She was a monster tipping the beam at 12 lbs. The doctor went home about five but Mrs. Lawson stayed right with Marj. I stayed till about half past seven and then went over to break the news to Aunty & Aunty Alice and have breakfast. Aunty Alice had just come down in her night-dress to light the fire so while they were getting dressed I went up and woke Mrs. Hugh Allan up as Mrs. Lawson was tending to her other patients.
