Chapters 7-8

Chapter 7 starts off with David's mother having a ham. It is interesting to see that not the pregnancy or even the baby can be acknowledged until after the baby has been okayed by the inspector. The inspector takes a long time to get to their house deliberately and this makes his father mad. I think this is funny because David's father is kind of a prick. David's aunt comes buy and David finds out the for the third time she gave birth to a blasphemy. Long story short, her baby commits a murder-suicide and Aunt Harriet's body is found in a river. This  makes David sad. I think that later on David will run away because he is scared of being slaughtered.
