Officers' Boys Ironing, Malawi, ca. 1914-1918

Black and white lantern slide featuring four officers' boys from the King's African Rifles standing around a table. One of the boys irons a cloth on the table. They stand in front of straw-covered huts, one of which appears to be next to a brick-built chimney. This slide comes from a set on the activities of the King’s African Rifles battalions in Nyasaland. It was originally held by the Church of Scotland, and generated by J.W MacKay.
