Commencement
Maddie sat next to Callie. “You want me to call the other women?”
Callie nodded. She knew that for labor and delivery in these parts, the traditional wisdom was the more women who attended the birth the better. Men were not allowed in the cabin during birth.
“Corrie Hannah!” called Maddie. “I want you to get Danya to take you o’er to the Raus’ cabin and call the ladies to come help me, you hear?”
Corrie looked at her pa, and he nodded. “Yes, ma’am!” said Corrie as she bolted out the door.
“Darla Whitney!” Maddie commanded. “You know where to find fresh squawroot and squaw weed?”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“Then scoot. Take Maria with you, and go get me a mess.” Looking to Abbie, she said, “I want you and Anna to help me boil some water. I’ll be simmerin’ the squawroot and squaw weed to make water for cleansin’ your ma durin’ and after the birth. Y’all get!”
Then she glared at Nate. “You too! Don’t want no man in here!”
He nodded and turned to leave as Callie moaned deeply.
