Photo taken in 1967 or 1968. The mother was one of the children of my next-door neighbors in Kabala. As is customary there, she had come home to stay with her parents for an extended period during her pregnancy and while her child was still an infant. She asked me to take a few pictures of her child and get prints for her next time I was in Freetown (which I did).
