When You Were In San Francisco Did You Go To Chinatown?

San Francisco, Tuesday, January 28, 1873.—We visited the Chinese temple of gods and witnessed the painful sight of the devotion of the Chinese to their senseless idols. They reverently clasped their hands, swaying them up toward their head and down three times as they bent their bodies in devotion to their gods. This was done before each. idol. There were no less than ten idols in this temple. They had bowls and cups with food in them placed before their idols. Oh, how sad that such superstition should exist in a Christian land. 1 LASW 104.2
