1st Assistant keeper Charles N. Miller stands smoking his pipe outside an entrance to the old hospital building that was used for keeper accommodations on Bedloe’s Island. After Charles eloped with Dorothea “Dora” Tiedgens on September 1, 1892 and brought her out to the Island to live with him, life became settled for him since he finally had his “Heart’s Desire” to keep him company.
