Year 1872 - 1874

These few years have been busy for my small family. My first daughter, Susan, was born. With the new addition to our family, I felt the need to build a house.

My dear wife also birthed our second daughter, Clara.

...a family brought love, and distributed it among many objects, and intensified it, and this engendered wearing cares and anxieties, and when the objects suffered or died the miseries and anxieties multiplied and broke the heart and shortened life...
