Description:

The scene consists of a drawing, in which David Livingstone sits reading from a book inside a homestead. Natives in traditional dress, one inside the homestead, a number outside, look on. This slide is from a set of slides on 'The Life and Work of David Livingstone' produced by the London Missionary Society around 1900. The top edge typed label states: "Reading the Bible".
