“I heard Mrs. Grace Merriweather giving a report in the living room on the squalid lives of the Mrunas, it sounded like to me. They put the women out out in huts when their time came, whatever that was; they had no sence of family-” (P.305 Ch. 24) This passage reminded me of in the Old Testiment when something simulay happened to the women.
