Description
"Soendagsskolen paa Ambatovinaky" ("Sunday School in Ambatovinaky"). Some of the children from the Sunday School class are wearing straw hats. They are all sitting on the porch which also has a railing.
In front to the left: Raliza (=Elisabeth Rabemaso). A little further up is Valborg Anderssen 1851-1935. She was a missionary in Madagascar from 1882-1912. In the back in a dark suit is Rev.Hans Rabeony. This picture is presumably taken in 1908, because Valborg Anderssen is wearing black and has a mourning veil on her hat. Her mother died in 1908.
