Trivia
This episode is nearly identical in title, plot, and even some camera angles to the Bonanza (1959) episode "A Matter Of Circumstance" (which only switched the focus to Michael Landon's character rather than Karen Grassle's); both were directed by William Claxton.

Goofs
The knife Caroline decides to use for amputating her leg wouldn't have cut through bone so she would have passed out and bled to death in the attempt had she tried.

Quotes
Dr. Hiram Baker: She's gonna be alright. You know Reverend, a doctor would have had difficulty making the decision Caroline did. How she picked exactly the right moment... only God knows.
Reverend Robert Alden: I'm sure He does, Doctor. I'm sure He does.
