"Holztonnen konnten wir nicht wieder machen, weil es an Brettern und Sägen fehlte. Da stampfen wir Zementrohre. Jeden Tag ein Rohr, weil wir nur eine Form haben." ("We could not make again wooden barrels because of the lack of boards and saws. Hence we pounded cement pipes. One pipe a day because we have only one mold.") To the left missionary Dietrich Waßmann Sr. and three Ethiopian workers stand at a cement pipe mold. Next to them in the grass six rectangular cement pipes are visible. To the right the thatched mission house can be seen.
