Image of a canoe being paddled by 17 men on a river in Calabar (located within later day Nigeria). The canoe, which would have been one of the main modes of transport, is painted blue with a yellow interior. Houses can be seen in the background along the river bank. Mary Slessor would have used this method of transport to carry herself and her medicines to remote villages.
