Black and white lantern slide showing an Indian man and his wife in a courtyard. The gentleman's wife is holding a small baby. The man, Mr Lyall, is wearing a light Western style suit with an open shirt. His wife wears a sari, and the baby wears a bonnet and an elaborate outfit that resembles a Christening gown. The couple are probably Christian converts or native evangelists working for Regions Beyond Missionary Union. This slide comes from a collection created by missionaries from Regions Beyond Missionary Union, an interdenominational Protestant evangelical mission working in northeast India (Bihar and Orissa) and Nepal.
