Description
Black and white lantern slide showing a road from the town of Motihari in Bihar to the mission station of the Regions Beyond Missionary Union. The Motihari mission station was opened in 1900. The road can be seen in the distance, and passes over a brick bridge crossing a river. This slide comes from a collection created by missionaries from Regions Beyond Missionary Union, an interdenominational Protestant evangelical mission working in northeast India (Bihar and Orissa) and Nepal.
