(initially I thought this was an 1833 LM-8 die marriage due to the size of the cud, but after in hand inspection, I attribute it as an 1833 LM-1...both die marriages are known for relatively large cud formation in late die states)

Sure, but what were the working conditions like? I've read they were not too great in the early days.
