He was an early member of the Congo Inland Mission board (later Africa Inter-Mennonite Mission); the other copy from Arthur and Emma Bertsche via Cynthia Bertsche Regier 1991 - this copy is slightly taller and shows more of the top of the tree on the left, and has "#5" written on the back; the Kreider copy is the one that was digitized
