Dr J N Ogilvie carried to school, Central province, Kenya, September 1920

“Miss S & Dr O.” Group portrait of Miss Marion Stevenson, head of education, and the Rev. James Nicoll Ogilvie (1860-1926) carried on a litter by indigenous men. During Dr Ogilvie’s tour of the Church of Scotland missions in British East Africa he visits the village of Chief Murigo where there is an out-school run by the evangelist Solomon. The school sits at the top of a small hill and Dr Ogilvie is ‘chaired’ to the summit. ❧ This image is from an album chronicling the time that Dr Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) spent at Tumutumu (1919-1921) and some of the early years at Chogoria.
