Diana Gabaldon Quote

How should I know? Jamie said testily. D’ye think I had anything to do wi’ engaging midwives? Mrs. Martin, the old midwife who had delivered all previous Murray children, had died—like so many others—during the famine in the year following Culloden. Mrs. Innes, the new midwife, was much younger; he hoped she had sufficient experience to know what she was doing.
