EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to June 1874 at Newstead Abbey in England. The image showcases James Chuma and Abdullah Susi, two devoted servants of the renowned Scottish missionary and explorer, David Livingstone. Standing proudly amidst a collection of David Livingstone's precious artefacts, these men played an integral role in preserving their master's legacy. James Chuma and Abdullah Susi embarked on an extraordinary journey across the African continent, spanning over 1000 miles, as they carefully carried Livingstone's remains back to Britain. Their dedication and loyalty shine through their eyes as they stand beside flags representing both their African heritage and British influence. The artefacts surrounding them tell tales of exploration; books filled with knowledge, maps charting unknown territories, a rifle symbolizing survival in harsh environments. These objects bear witness to the incredible adventures undertaken by Livingstone himself. This albumen print captures a moment frozen in time - a testament to the enduring bond between servant and master. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that individuals like James Chuma and Abdullah Susi had on history; ordinary men who became part of something extraordinary. Through this photograph by R. & Son Allen from the 19th century, we are granted a glimpse into an era where exploration was revered and missionaries like David Livingstone left indelible marks upon our world.
