Last Friday we went on a field trip to Fort Baker. Fort Baker is where Samuel Baker stayed from 1872-1878 to try and get rid of Arab Slave traders. Before he got there, the fort was where African slaves were sold, and also killed.

| Another axe mark. We saw hundreds of axe marks. |

Thomas, I hope you can take us there when we come! Love you, Grandma
