This story was a bit hard and criminal than previous stories I have read and taken notes on.
There were two wives, both had children and were married. These wives were to look after the children while their husbands were leaving to go trade, or in other words work.
There were to be someone looking after the children at all times, they could never be left alone.
The oldest wife left to go gather food for a few days while the other watched after the children.
When she returned, the other wife left while she stayed and cared for the children.
The younger wife had a child that was much smarter than her child, so one day, the older wife decided she was going to kill the the child. The older wife went in and killed what she though was the other child. It turns out that she had killed her own child thinking it was the other one.
She took her deceased child into the woods. She rocked and nursed her dead child, hoping it would bring the child back.
The husbands found out about this upon their return and found her and the child in the woods. They took and buried the child and fed the mother casca, which killed her. They lit her body on fire and watched as the ashes burned.
