Tinted lantern slide showing a view of a crowd of people in the village of Bhitiharwa (here spelled Bhithirwa), Bihar state, India. Men, women and children are in the crowd, and a dog and a cow can be seen in the foreground. The photograph was taken by M.T Peters. 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.
