MONUMENT AAN DAVID LIVINGSTONE, VERKENNER.
Die liggaam van David Livingstone, die groot ontdekkingsreisiger, is in Westminster Abbey begrawe, maar die monument wat hiernaas afgebeeld word, is onlangs ter nagedagtenis van die beroemde Skot opgerig op die oewer van die Bangweolomeer, Afrika, naby die plek waar die hy dertig jaar gelede oorlede is. Onder die monument is Livingstone se hart, wat nie na Engeland geneem is nie. Stanley het Livingstone in 1871 gevind, maar Livingstone het geweier om terug te keer huis toe en is twee jaar later dood.
English: Cropped from the newspaper shown. Sharpened and rotated using GIMP.
MONUMENT TO DAVID LIVINGSTONE, EXPLORER.
The body of David Livingstone, the great explorer, is buried in Westminster Abbey, but the monument herewith illustrated was recently erected in memory of the famous Scotchman on the shore of Lake Bangweolo, Africa, near the spot where the explorer died thirty years ago. Beneath the monument is Livingstone's heart, which was not taken to England. Stanley found Livingstone in 1871, but Livingstone refused to return home and died two years later.
