Description
"Zug m. Erntedankgaben zum Walde, wo der Gottesdienst stattfindet" ("Procession with thanksgiving offerings to the forest where the service takes place"). People dressed in 'kanzu' and cloths with burdens on their heads and carts walking on a path between banana plants.
Wilhelm Guth (1888-1980), from Zeiskam in the Rhineland Palatinate, studied commerce before joining the Leipzig Mission as a pastor. He served in Gonja (southern Pare) from 1913 to 1917 and from 1927 to 1938. He left a large number of photographs, mostly taken by himself but including some by members of his family or fellow missionaries.
