Wm to H'ry, Dec. 22, 1890. Age: 48

Wm announces the birth of his third son, again (Herman died in infancy...):

"It all went off most beautifully -- One doesn't see why it mightn't happen every week.  The brat is very vigorous looking, and weighs 11 lbs. by the kitchen spring balance."

Alexander Robertson James would go on to be a painter of some note.
