Summary[edit]

Description
English:
Miss M Cork and companions, Congo, ca. 1900-1915
Black and white lantern slide featuring Miss M Cork, a young Congolese boy and an older woman, who may be his mother. Miss Cork sits at the centre of the image on a chair. She wears a smart hat, and an Edwardian style floor length dress with puff sleeves and narrow cuffs. The boy and woman stand to either side of her. The boy wears a smart shirt and short, whilst the Congolese woman wears a light, European style dress with a clasp belt. Miss Cork was based at Bonginda (recorded in 1899) and later at Lulonga, and survived the wreck of the steamer, "Jebba", when she returned to the United Kingdom on furlough in 1907. This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission, Regions Beyond Missionary Union.
