"A baptismal scene in the river at Benares. Our Indian Pastor is doing the baptising." An indigenous pastor and three young men stand in the river as the pastor baptizes them. The water comes up to their waists. In the background is a man in a small boat. This photograph is from an album prepared by W. K. Norton of The Pilgrims Mission, Benares [Vārānasi].
