Box 1: Account of Mauritius by John Le Brun, 1833; translation of speech by Madagascar Prime Minister on his people, 1879; Tss. notes on the Madagascar Mission by James Sibree; documents re. freedom of worship under French Government, 1907-1919; correspondence with General Gallieni, Governor General and Chief of Occupying Army, 1897; papers of the Madagascar Centenary subcommittee, 1918; addresses to LMS, 1920, on a century of work in Madagascar
Box 3: Notebook journal of Rev J. A. Houlder, 1884-1896, including French occupation of Tamatare in 1894; letters of Charles H. Stagg, schoolmaster, 1862-1863; correspondence of H. A. Ridgewell, 1941-1945, concerning a missionary A. Lieb; copy correspondence concerning relations with the French Government, 1912-1931
Box 4: Miscellaneous articles and letters, 1818-1937, including letters of David Johns, 1843-1861; correspondence with the British Agent for Madagascar re. missionaries, 1822; copies of correspondence from Thomas Bevan, 1818, David Jones, 1818-1839; circular letters from Kendall Gale, 1930-1936 (see Madagascar Personal 2); Malagasy language materials; photographs of James Sibree and family
Box 5: 'Royal Lamba' from Madagascar, with explanatory notes by Rev A. R. Down (en), who was serving as a missionary with the London Missionary Society in Madagascar between 1937 and 1942. He states that the Royal Lamba was presented to him as the district missionary in which the Lamba had been made (Andriana), at a time when it had become apparent that the ancient customs surrounding the burial of Malagasy royalty would not be restored (i.e. following the French occupation of Madagascar and colonial rule). The age of the cloth is unknown. He states that "Several of the gold threads in the Lamba are woven from pure spiders web silk". There are three examples of cloth, but it is thought that only one of these is 'Royal Lamba'; one example appears to be of a finer quality with golden threads. |
