Here are a few pictures of some of the places I visited while attending Miss Whitaker's Academy for Young Ladies in San Francisco. I didn't visit these places because I wanted to, by the way. My friend Jenny and I sort of ended up in Chinatown while we were trying to help Lin Mei escape from her cruel slave master. (See Andrea Carter and the San Francisco Smugglers).I am sharing tiny pictures to get you interested. You need to click on the pictures, which will take you to the full-size image on the original sites. These pictures are copyrighted, and I wanted to be as honest about this as I could. Sharing it this way sends you to the real pictures.
Enjoy!

A little mui tsai with a baby on her back. She has to work hard from dawn to dusk. 
A busy sidewalk in Chinatown.
A narrow alley much like the one Jenny, I, and the little slave girls got trapped in!
There are many, many openings that lead under Chinatown--dark, dangerous places.
A street vendor "writing" for a child.
And lastly, "Nob Hill," the site of Miss Whitaker's Academy for Young Ladies--up where the rich folks live. I hope you take time and visit all these places and "see" what I saw in 1881.
