205 x 125 mm. View of John Radford Streeter (c. 1847-?) standing in front of a corrugated iron and thatch house. He was a CMS lay missionary appointed Lay Superintendant in 1878. He is generally remembered for the brutality of his treatment of Africans under his charge and for his attempt to extend the mission's influence over subjects of the Wali of Mombasa, which drew a rebuke from Sir John Kirk. |
