” But how would this tiny child without family find her grave when there would be no marker for her anywhere, neither in the earth nor the family hall?”
How would the little baby know who she was. No one would treat her well because she would be known as the child that comes from a lady that cheated on her husband while he was away working. She was made by a women who commited adultry. The people in the community would not put the baby in a proper place if she would have needed to be buried and they would not tell her or let her know who she really was because they would not give her the family name. Even though she had nothing to do with what her parents did she would be the embarrasment. So the mother of the child felt that the right thing to do was to drown the baby down the well along with herself.
“How the hell did we ever get married? Did you just say ” I do” because the minister said ” repeat after me”? What would you have done with your life if I had never married you? Did it ever occur to you?”

He was upset and felt that his wife could not make up her mind because of the mistakes that he made with the patients face. He felt like it was all her fault because he needed to blame it on someone. He asked her what she would do with her life had he not married her. That was a sign there to show that the marriage was over. No getting the answer that he was looking for from his wife has brought it to the point where he now wants to divorce his wife. The main point that was trying to be said is talk to your partner.
