Description
Photograph of the farewell ceremony for Reverend Leo W. Sweeney, MM, upon his departure from Chinnampo (now N'ampo), Korea. The ceremony takes place in the open area in front of the school which is the long white building with three entrances in the center of the photograph. Reverend Sweeney is the man seated at the center of the table covered with a white cloth. The large group in the courtyard are Chinnampo Mission School students. Above the school can be seen two brick buildings. The one on the left is the Chinnampo church. The one on the right is the rectory. Caption on back of the photo: "The school children gather for farewell salutations to Fr. Sweeney, their pastor."
