description:
|
Miss Nellie Scheibner (Nurse) holds Eugea's twins Eileen and Judy. Gertrude Van Roekel notes that these girls were fortunate to be born in the hospital. If an older person had attended the birth at home one of the twins would have been placed outside and neglected until it died as twins were thought to have two different fathers.
