This object has the following keywords:

• bedrooms - Rooms designed for or used to contain a bed or beds for sleeping.
• beds - Generally, the sleeping places of humans and animals. Specifically, permanent pieces of furniture comprised of a bedstead, which is the wooden or metal support, and the bedding, including the mattress and cover.
• deaths - Cessation of life processes of all living organisms, but particularly refers to the act as it occurs in individual human beings.
• Dutch - Refers to the culture of the modern nation of the Netherlands, or in general to cultures that have occupied the same area in northwestern Europe along the North Sea. It is often used to distinguish the culture of the northern historic Netherlands from "Flemish," which is the culture of the southern Netherlands or Flanders. It may also be used to refer in general to the culture of Germanic or Teutonic peoples; however, this meaning is seldom found in modern texts.
• ill - Those who are afflicted with illness or disease.
• mourners - People who feel or express grief or sorrow.
• prints - Pictorial works produced by transferring images by means of a matrix such as a plate, block, or screen, using any of various printing processes. When emphasizing the individual printed image, use "impressions." Avoid the controversial expression "original prints," except in reference to discussions of the expression's use. If prints are neither "reproductive prints" nor "popular prints," use the simple term "prints." With regard to photographs, prefer "photographic prints"; for types of reproductions of technical drawings and documents, see terms found under "reprographic copies."
• visitors - May refer generally to any person who visits a place that they do not normally inhabit. Specifically, an official that visits a place or operation at intervals for the purpose of inspection or supervision.
