Letter from Sarah A. Murray and Jacob H. Murray to Uriah W. Oblinger, September 6, 1868
Family of Louis Rizzo, a laborer who works some. The wife and four children (none could speak English at all) work on feathers and make about $3.00 a week. Been in U.S. five months. Do not go to school yet. Through an interpreter they said Peter is 15, Jimmie 14, Carbo 9 and John 7 years old; but those seemed to me too high. They were working in a very dim light.  Location: New York, New York (State)
