Description
Annotation translation: "Commentary to B.529.b [i.e. this picture]. Our missionary doctor, Dr. Vischer, has treated the sick in a village while he was on trek. Now his medicines and his instruments are quickly packed into metal cases and carried across the shaky plank to the landing-raft and the motor boat, so he can travel on to the next village."
