The large building at the right is the United States Marine Hospital at the end of Rincon Point. Built in 1853, it later became the Sailor's Home, and drew criticism as being merely a seamen's boarding house run under a high-sounding name. At the left, the brick building is St. Mary's Hospital.

Physical Description: Black-and-white photographic print., p (6 x 3-3/4 in.): n, x

Scope and Content Note

Additional information included inside the pl enclosure: correspondence dated 11/2/59 from John to Theo. "Thank you for your note of 30 October and for letting me see the enclosed pictures. 3.7542p is clearly the Pacific Mail S.S. Co. steamer CITY OF PEKING (the name is visible on the lifeboats), and I assume that it was taken when she was in dry dock at Hunter's Point. It shows her with the small stacks which she carried in her later years. The ship was re-boilered in 1887, and I have always assumed that these small stack were fitted then, but I cannot be sure of this. I suppose that 3.7543p shows the screw and rudder of the CITY OF PEKING, taken at the same time as the other picture, but I have no way of proving this.

  • 7422p is unidentifiable as far as I am concerned. It seems to be taken on the deck of a paddle steamer (the paddle box shows behind the two men standing at the far left). I do not recognize any of the people. The caps have the legend "P.M.S.S.Co." on them which indicates the ownership of the steamer. As far as I am concerned, there is not enough detail of deck arrangement shown to indicate what the particular ship may be.
  • Best wishes to you and my other friends at the museum."

The picture shows her approaching her San Francisco wharf with sacked grain or rice on her foredeck and visible through the side port. In the background, the Castle, a restaurant and resort built on top of Telegraph Hill in 1882, can be seen at the right.

Below, on the waterfront, Fishermen's Wharf, then at the foot of Union Street, may be seen at the far left. The brick warehouse at the right was still standing in 1957, although it was no longer on the waterfront. (Courtesy Society of California Pioneers.)"

  • "Ship Passing in Under Full Sail Thrills Shore Throngs.
  • Like a phantom from the past, a three-masted schooner slipped through the Golden Gate yesterday and made her way to an anchorage off Yerba Buena Island.
  • Her weather soiled canvas billowing in the breeze, the schooner was a picturesque sight for the thousands of holiday diversion seekers along the Ocean Beach and on the heights overlooking the bay.
  • The vessel was the fishing schooner LOUISE of the Union Fish Company, back from an unusually long season in the Bering Sea, her holds bulging with a record catch of 200,000 codfish. Her late arrival was due to an unexpectedly large run of fish during the last month, according to Captain Dan Hanson, her skipper.
  • One of the few remaining schooners in regular service on the Pacific, the LOUISE attracted more attention as she came in than the latest ocean line. Her canvas was almost black from the elements, and her green sides weathered into an indistinguishable hue.
  • The LOUISE will proceed today to Richardson Bay to await the departure of the schooner WILLIAM H. SMITH from the Union Fish wharf at Belvedere. Then she will unload her cargo.
  • Captain Hanson, a sailor of the 'old school,' is one of the best known shipmasters on the coast."

Caption: The Undaunted's struggle with Cape Horn...
Showing a 49 day effort to round "Cape Stiff" in the teeth of westerly gales .. a hazard faced by each of the thousands of sailing ships doubling this stormiest of headlands on their way to San Francisco.
In windjammer days the shipmaster was obliged to supply his own charts for the navigation of the ship. For the sake of comparing the vessel's progress with previous voyages he seldom made erasure. This chart, owned by Captain William T. Lewis, shows positions for his ship, the American full rigger Undaunted, on Cape Horn voyages in 1887, 1888, 1890, and 1891.
The sounding in 1891, (traced in red on the chart) was described by Captain Lewis as made in the worst weather he had met in twenty passages around the Cape. He had lost his mate and three seamen to yellow fever in Rio de Janeiro, and after a detention there of 10 weeks, the Undaunted was delayed 49 days more in a desperate struggle with the westerly Cape Horn gales.
From the Nautical Magazine of November 1896: "Balclutha (arrived) at San Francisco from Swansea; had several heavy gales off Cape Horn. 7 June in 55'55' South, 62'51' West, very heavy SSW gale, cargo shifted to starboard, but no damage done. Had strong SE winds from 50 South in Atlantic to 30 South in Pacific"

Extent: 1 negative.

Scope and Content Note

Written along one edge of negative is, "Fred Linderman & Miss Faucher, W.A. Beadle Office, Cor. Drum & Calif St. 1895". No listing for Fred Linderman in Langley's San Francisco Directories until 1898, so the date of 1895 may be incorrect. Also, the business name is listed in the directories as "A.W. Beadle & Co." (1895-1903), also as "Beadle Steamship Co." (1903).
Fred Linderman worked as bookkeeper (1898), cashier (1901) and secretary (1903) for A.W. Beadle & Co. according to the directories.

Josselyn, my grandmother. The captain all had shares--you peddled these ships wherever you could--100 shares originally, not 64ths. I remember old man Johnson kicking because J.J. & J. hadn't got any ship chandlery business for 3 or 4 trips, Foard & Barstow getting it all. ---- John Linderman 1966" Source: "L&C - John Linderman"

Photograph of an engraved illustration from the book, "California Life Illustrated", p. 78. See info. file for more information. Text accompanying the illustration, describes the view: "An idea of the prestige of the gambling fraternity, and the magnificence of their saloons in those days, may be obtained from the accompanying cut, representing, to the life, the interior of the El Dorado, a large gambling-house, at the northeast corner of the Plaza. The tables, loaded with gold and silver, you cannot see for the multitude; but in the rear end of the saloon you see, elevated on a stage, a band of the best musicians the country could furnish, sending forth their melody in such sweetness and variety as to crowd the house, and hold in admiration the promiscuous masses in the streets. I have heard them sing and play, "home, sweet, sweet home," till homeless wanderers, by hundreds, would stand entranced, seeming to live for a time in the embrace of loved ones, surrounded by all the sweet associations of the past. Alas! it was but the song of the siren. On the right may be seen the beautifully ornamented bar, with splendid mirrors in the rear, around which many a jolly circle of hopeful young prodigals drank to each other's health the deadly draught."

"Those who "put up at the hotel, at thirty dollars per week," found no soft beds in rosewood, with downy pillows, but occupied "bunks" made of rough boards, on the side of the wall, shelving one above another, as in emigrant ships. I have seen not only the walls of hotel lofts thus lined with bunks, but large cribs of them, extending up to the roof of the house, covering the entire floor, except narrow passages giving access to them. Sheets were a superfluity not indulged in; pillows were of straw; mattresses, where they had any, were of the same; but in many cases the sleeper lay on the board which held him up off his fellow-sleeper beneath. I tried one night to sleep in one, which, unfortunately for, was covered with cross slats, evidently designed for a mattress; but the last-mentioned very important article, in such a case, was not there. Turning and rolling on these slats, I longed for the morning. The soft side of a board, compared with them, would have been a luxury. To the foregoing sleeping arrangements, if you add a few coarse gray blankets, you will have an original California lodging-house furnished. I heard it positively asserted by many, who had been made tremblingly sensible of the fact, that in some houses a few pair of blankets supplied a houseful of lodgers. As the weary fellows "turned in" one after another, they were comfortably covered till they would fall into a sound sleep, and then the blankets were removed to cover a new recruit, and thus they were passed round for the accommodation of the whole company. By way of variety, the adventurous lodgers in those pioneer hotels were frequently visited by the third plague of Egypt, accompanied by a liliputian host of the flea tribe, whose stimulating influence upon their subjects is represented in the accompanying cut. Any man who is not proof against fleas, or who cannot effect a good insurance on his skin, had better keep away from old Spanish towns and Indian villages..."p. 164-167.
