      Conjectural south elevation of Peirce’s Milford, Pennsylvania, home in 1888—the year that Charles and Juliette bought the house. The simple farmhouse would be buried within a series of major expansions during the final twenty-six years of Peirce’s life; today it serves as a Park Service facility within the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. Adapted from “Charles S. Peirce House,” a 1983 National Park Service Historic Structure Report by Penelope Hartshorne Batcheler.
