"Wittekleibosch. Schulhaus und Schüler." ("Wittekleibosch. School building and students."). The picture shows a group of around 60 schoolboys and schoolgirls of African origin. Some sit some stand. Some teachers stand behind them. In the background a house and trees. Written on the card board: "Br. Baudert 1930." ("Br[other] Baudert 1930.").; Wittekleibosch is an outstation of Clarkson. -- The picture was probably taken by Samuel Baudert (1879-1956), born as son of the missionary Samuel Baudert in South Africa. He was the mission director of the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine from 1924 to 1927 and since 1929 their bishop.
