the bearing on that side is fine, it's laminted to the existing stud which you cant really see behind the lathe, i also doubled up all the joists as well as blocked the shit out of the joists right below it in the basement

it's not a bearing wall, and there really wasnt much of, if any load on those existing studs so it's moreso just peice of mind

in a hundred year old house, your best friend is a 5 ton floor jack! lol..
