Description
A large crowd is gathered on the wharf at Kiukiang [Jiujiang]. The photograph appears to have been taken from a boat looking down on the wharf. The back of the heads of two men can be seen peering out over the side of the boat. The city can be seen in the distance.
This photo is from the papers of Dean Goddard, who was an American Baptist missionary in Ningpo, Che-chiang, China from 1870-1903.
