The house on the Bakersfield lot

California · USA · Manor

This house at Bakersfield, California was built in 1911 and three separate figures are described in it.

The first is a young man, seen hammering. He is understood to be a workman who fell to his death during construction.

The second is an elderly woman who stands and watches.

The third is a man everybody describes the same way, as angry, and the accounts differ on who he was.

A workman still at his work is one of the oldest forms these reports take, and it turns up wherever a building cost somebody their life. Construction in 1911 had no fall protection worth the name and a death on a domestic job was not unusual enough to make the papers.

The three are reported separately and behave differently, which is what makes the account worth keeping rather than a general impression of an uneasy building.

It is a working office.
