Description
Black and white lantern slide showing two men standing next to a wooden flat-bed cart. The cart sits on wooden rails. Both men wear long shorts and shirts. The cart appears to run on wooden rails. It sits next to a partly constructed wooden, thatched and brick building, and may have been involved in its contruction. This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission begun in 1889 under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission Regions Beyond Missionary Union after 1900.
