Description
Photograph of "a belltower and a priest-house in Mindanao-style. It is neither Greek nor Roman, neither [?] nor Renaissance, but something quite of its own. A white man thinks it very ugly and shabby, but the natives are very well satisfied with it. The church is just in the same style, and the roof of palm leaves is always leaky. Anthony M. van den Bogaard" Two boys stand in the bell tower. A third boy stands near the ladder leading to the belltower platform. The priest's house is the building in the background on the left hand side of the photo.
