In front of Elias Mzuku's house in Xentu. Samuel Baudert, South Africa East, 1929

1929

"Vor Elias Mzukus Haus in Xentu. Sam. Baudert" ("In front of Elias Mzuku's house in Xentu. Sam[uel] Baudert"). An African (maybe Elias Mzuku) and a European man (apparently Samuel Baudert) are standing in front of a house. They both are wearing suits and hats. Baudert is holding another jacket in his left hand. Samuel Baudert (1879-1956), born as son of the missionary Samuel Baudert in South Africa, was mission director of the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine from 1924 to 1927 and since 1929 their bishop--Elias Mzuku, coming from Tembuland, was an Evangelist in Xentu (South Africa).
