I wonder if her experience... Written by Mary Ellen (9/1/2005 6:34 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Childbirth, penned by Lizzy M.

gave her a gallows humor that is shown in the lines I quote here:

Mrs. Hall, of Sherborne, was brought to bed yesterday of a dead child, some weeks before she expected, owing to a fright. I suppose she happened unawares to look at her husband.

When one is constantly exposed to such experience, one might develop quite an odd perspective.
