Description

McCarthy is being introduced to the village councillors by Plummer. The inscription on the slide states that the other European man is De Clency, who must have come with McCarthy in the same plane. A crowd of local people have gathered on this occasion. [Andrew Moutu 25/02/04]

Plummer (left) is looking at the camera; McCarthy (right) is wearing a brown wide-brimmed hat. The third man (with his back to the camera, centre) could be DJ Clancy, a Deputy District Commissioner. [Mark Elliott 10/03/04]
