Who does your family rely on most? Between 1843-1882, the Longfellow family employed 74 servants in their home. In time for Labor Day, we trace the lives of servants through the opulent rooms of 105 Brattle St., and learn how their labor was integral to the family, social, and intellectual life of this famous home.
