The camp kitchen, India, ca. 1906

Black and white lantern slide showing three Muslim male staff of the Regions Beyond Missionary Union mission cooking food outside a tent. One adolescent boy brings a kettle to an open cooking fire, next to which sits another young man who stirs food in a pot. Another young man sits on the ground, and seems to be cleaning or sharpening knives. 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.
