To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This labor was not attend- ed with much suffering, until the last expulsive pains, which were severe and powerful. She suffered no after pains as was usual with her previous labors, and only complained of her bowels being sore, and requested her lady friends present to rub her bowels "good and hard" with camphor, which request was readily acceded to, amounting almost, I infer from what these lady friends informed me, to a "kneading" of the womb. The lochia! discharge continued one week, but was... very pale and scanty. There was no perceptible reduction in the size of her abdomen after the birth of her child and the delivery of the placenta, and she positively contended that there was another child in utero, having the two previous labors to thi^ confine- ment given birth to twins; but the midwife who was with her was equally as positive that there was not another baby, and so tried to impress her, but without effect. She kept her bed about a week, and, I suppose on account of her poverty, she having no one to wait on iier or attend to her domestic duties, managed to get out of bed and seemingly as well as she had ever been after her previous confinements, with the exception of the enlarged condition of her abdomen, which the midwife thought was due to a tumor, and which alarmed her relatives and neighbors, but which the mother continued to say was due to another foetus, and that time would prove her assertion.
