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, Mrs. Woodyer and Mrs. McKenzie. I went home right after breakfast around by the farm to tell the news and got here about nine o'clock. Ina was up and had both the children dressed. They had both been good all night but Harry B didn't want to have breakfast without me. I did up all the chores and right after dinner we started out again. Ina went home for the afternoon and I took Harry B & his "trunk" and left him at the farm where he is to stay and I took Gay right on down town and left her at Aunty's for the afternoon. I then went over to Mrs.Lawson's where people seemed to be pouring in to see the various babies. Woodyer was at the door with a face like a full moon and a grin you could lie behind, he isn't proud of his boy "over nothin'". I went right up to Marj's room where I found Grace Allan. She was supposed to be kept very quiet and not move talk or laugh but Grace said she herself couldn't help talking and Marj. had to answer and as Grace's conversation consisted of every imaginable subject from her reformation of Hugh to her accounts of stealing onions from old Moneck, Marj. had to laugh too. The doctor came while I was there and I walked up town with him, he assured me Marj. was doing well. He
