Pickens, Jr. and Carter Holton. General note: Excerpt from unpublished photo essay, plate 8: "Three of the more than eighty student ahungs (mullahs) from all over the Northwest and even from the coastal provinces who study at this main mosque of Sining. The round caps immediately distinguish a Moslem from a Chinese, or as is commonly said, 'the Hsiao Chiao from the Ta Chiao." Access to original photographs and albums in the Rev. Claude L. Pickens, Jr. Collection is restricted. Photographs and images from the collection may be reproduced only with written permission. Contact the Harvard-Yenching Library for permissions and fees.
