The words on the book is July IV M DCCL XXVI. This book is Declaration of Independence. There are a lots of detail in the sculpture, it's a amazing work.

The neighborhood of the same name is a community of 60,000 people in the western part of the peninsula, with Seagate to its west; Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east; and Gravesend to the north.

In the 1920s, Carl Ray and W.M. Davidson made the land around the headwaters of the Spring into something resembling the attraction that is there today, now known as the Silver Springs Nature Theme Park.

Children per woman VS Income per person

The fertility is keep decreasing each year, sometimes it increase, but not a lot, however, it's average is 3 by the end of 19th century. The in come of per person keep increase. From 1800- 1840, the data didn't change at all, but after that, the income increase, and then go straight, then increase again. These two are opposite, one is increase and another is decrease.
Income per person VS Life expectancy
The graph shows us the change of income and life expectancy. The life expectancy form a very difficult line, it's complicated. look at the line, it's up down. Again, income is still increasing, their income became more and more. It's not difficult as life expectancy.
Children per woman VS CO2 emissions
This graph shows us the data of children is going down forward. On the other hand, the CO2 emissions went up forward, 1820~1900 is the time child get lesser, I think during this time people are afraid their number of people will get lesser. 
Artifact 5: Primary Scource Evaluation OPVL

The California Gold Rush, 1849

     Sheldon went to West America, California, collect gold. This is a letter for his family, and he is writing this letter on the boat. He said the place with gold are lots of diseases, and people got sick at there. In the end, he died at their.

     Sheldon is a person that wants a brand new life. So he wants to collect gold from other place, not only the diseases, also Typhoon. The place were lots of people, and also lots of people died. but this doesn't change Sheldon's mind, he still work hard try to have a good family.

    In my opinion, This is not a good way to earn money, this might broke family, and cause people die. In true life, workers work hard to build buildings, they wants a better life, but this kind of job is dangerous, some times when I wan watching the news, I saw that workers died by accident. And their family cried very hard. Every time I saw this kind of news I'll try to change a channel. So I hope people can try to use other way to make money.
