General note: Excerpt from unpublished photo essay, plate 43: "The interior of the Weichow mosque, looking toward the mihrab. It resembles an Anglican Church with its apse and choir screen. Matting for the worship[p]ers can be seen in the foreground. In the winter these are replaced by goat or sheep skins." Access to original photographs and albums in the Rev. Claude L.
