“A women’s class at Butere. Miss Chad[wick] ---.” “Another day Tarr & I walked over to Archdeacon Owen’s at Butere.” Interior view of a room, full of women and Miss Chadwick standing at the front. Jane Elizabeth Chadwick (1869-1940), established the girls’ school at Butere which had a reputation for excellence. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in German East Africa and Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
