Black and white lantern slide showing a group of four individuals standing outside a brick built house in Baharia (Barharia), twenty miles from Siwan, Bihar, India. The group comprises of a female European missionary in smart attire wearing a hat or pith helmet, and an Indian family: a father, mother and adolescent daughter. The original caption to the slide reads: "Baharia - 20 miles Siwan. Ev. House." "Ev. House" may indicate the name of the building as "Evangelical House." 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.
