Nick and his father set out for the Indian Camp during the nighttime and come back during the day. This is a [[metaphor]] for Nick not knowing what he is going to encounter and then coming out of the whole situation by learning a few life lessons. "Other metaphoric relationships (father and son, white man and Indian, middle-class and poor) serve important purposes in this compelling story"(34).

The story starts by covering Nick and different characters in the corner of the night as they plan for their excursion. For Nick, this excursion is into the obscure, at last, to observe birth and death. The story builds up the comparability between birth and passing by portraying both as vicious. The lady in the story is in pain because her child is brought into the world in a breech position, and for quite a long time she has been suffering. While her shouts are agonizing, Nick's dad recommends that this aggravation is a characteristic piece of the birthing process. Besides, since she can't convey the child normally, Nick's dad works on her without the sedative. When she delivers the child, Nick's dad keeps an eye on the man in the top bunk, he tracks down a horrifying scene, the man had cut his throat. It appears to be while watching the woman giving birth made him kill himself, the birth and death is a metaphor.(28-31)(34)
