Summary edit

Description
English: Mary Tsarong was the first Tibetan girl to receive a western education. Photo sent to former headmistress of Queen's Hill School Carolyn Stahl in 1921 with the words "Sincerely - Loving Pupil Mary Tsarong".

Miss Stahl had a neatly typed note on it that says:

"A Tibetan woman of the higher class from Lhasa. A pupil in Queen's Hill 1916 - 1919. Was Eleven when she came. In school she was not the subdued phlegmatic looking person shown here. She was an energetic high-spirited girl, quite capable of holding her own among the other girls. She dressed in English clothes and quickly learned English and entered into all the school life. She began in the First Grade and finished in the Fourth. The journey from Lhasa to Darjeeling took seventeen days on horseback, the whole way across mountainous country."
中文：噶倫擦絨·旺秋傑布的女兒仁欽卓瑪（車仁晉美夫人）送給Queen's Hill寄宿學校校長Carolyn Stahl的照片。仁欽卓瑪是第一個接受西方教育的藏族女孩，她第一次到印度大吉嶺的Queen's Hill上學是由駐錫金政務官大衛·麥克唐納的孩子陪同。
Stahl在照片上有打字的筆記：「來自拉薩的藏族上層女性。1916年至1919年Queen's Hill的一名學生。她來的時候十一歲。她不像照片所顯示的冷靜、冷漠的人。在學校裡她是一個充滿活力、精力充沛的女孩，在同輩中毫不膽怯。她穿著英國服裝，很快就學會了英語，融入了整個學校生活。她從一年級開始讀到四年級。她從拉薩到大吉嶺的旅程在馬背上花了17天穿越多山的野外。」
