Phototype: Photo. Format: 6,0 X 14,0. Description: Text on photo back: A European chieftain wedding. There were 1200 natives and 36 Europeans as guests. You see the unstoppable progress of civilization. The chief has immediately plunged into very big expenses. You can't see anything of the screaming shortage of money in the country. But so it always is, a whine and nothing keeps people from saving when it's for their own purposes. And they're Christians.
