Footnotes:
[1] Through the effort of the writer and the aid of the agent of the building this woman was made to move a little further west.
[2] N.B.—G. P.’s is strictly authentic. The Chicago Rescue Mission will give you details and take charge of any help you may care to give her.
[3] Note.—Baptista Pizza, it was discovered, did not go to Italy, but after a few months of hiding, again engaged in his nefarious business. He was recently arrested for selling an American girl, fined $1000.00 and sentenced to two years in the House of Correction.
[4] This girl was turned over to the Chicago Rescue Mission, cleaned and clothed and fed and pointed to Jesus Christ. Her story was investigated and found true and after receiving medical attention she was quietly returned to her country home.
[5] Visit any of the great line of abandoned houses in the red-light district of Custom House Place or Plymouth Court and note the bars and screens and underground steel doors.
