Summary

Description
English: Missionary on donkey, Congo, ca. 1900-1915.
  • Congo Balolo Mission, Congo (present day Democratic Republic of the Congo).
  • Tinted lantern slide showing a male missionary sitting on a donkey. He wears a pith helmet, shirt and tie, trousers, shoes and jacket. He also carries a cane. The donkey is being held by a young male convert of the Congo Balolo Mission, who wears the trimmed shirt that the Mission provided. The young man's arm is bangaged.
  • The pair is in front of a wooden mission building with a thatched roof, surrounded by a flower garden.
  • This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission begun in 1889 under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission Regions Beyond Missionary Union after 1900.
