    Verse 7 • The barred window at the top of the rock formation in At stone wall’s door Image 1 is a reference to the prison cells at Alcatraz. The air smells sweet Not far away High posts are three Education and Justice For all to see Sounds from the sky Near ace is high Running north, but first across In jewel’s direction • The fingers in Image 1 are pointing to the 4th and 3rd row Is an object of squares in the woman’s sleeve. These may be possible Of Twain’s attention references to Pier 43, but I think the fingers have a more Giant pole significant meaning. Giant step To the place The casque is kept Summary ‘At stone wall’s door’ is a reference to Alcatraz and to the entry point to Alcatraz, which is Fisherman’s Wharf. Fisherman’s Wharf is the starting point for solving the San Francisco puzzle. • Fisherman’s Wharf roughly encompasses the northern waterfront area of San Francisco from Pier 35 or Kearny Background Street west to Ghirardelli Square or Van Ness Ave. • ‘Stone’ is a synonym for rock, and ‘The Rock’ is another name for Alcatraz. In Verse 7, ‘stone wall’ is Alcatraz, and the ‘door’ is where you would go to get to Alcataz. • The most common method of transportation to Alcatraz is a ferry, which typically would be boarded from one of the piers at Fisherman’s Wharf (for example, Pier 43). • Pier 43 in Fisherman’s Wharf was built in 1914 and was used for loading and unloading rail cars on and off ferries.
