Returning to his old home, he went through the items in the house to take back to his present place, he found "the brown chest" that had been left in the attic. Asking his son to bring it down to the main room, they went through the contents of the chest. The passage "The sweetish deep cedary smell, undiminished, cedar and camphor and paper and cloth, the smell of family, family without end" he began to have a familiar smell and feeling of his family.

2nd option

explanation:

type of error:

the error in the sentence is a "dangling modifier". a dangling modifier is a phrase, word or clause that "dangles" because there is not target to modify. in this case, "after mopping the floor" is the dangling modifier since it has no word to modify. the noun "house" cannot mop the floor; therefore there is a mistake in the writing of the sentence.
