Text description beneath the picture (subject to any spelling errors due to the OCR program used) A CHURCH PROCESSION IN THE BAHAMASThere is no part of the British Empire in which clergy of the Church of England do not conduct their ministrations. We see from the picture that they are firmly established in the little group of the Bahamas. The clergy, preceded by the choir of white-robed choristers, are passing in procession through Nassau, the capital of the colony. In the choir are to be seen many negroes, members of the Church, and doubtless also effective members of the choir, for the musical genius of the negro is great and genuine, as the plaintive and lovely plantation melodies of the Southern States of the Union bear testimony. The Bishop of Nassau presides over the Church in the Bahamas, and the Cathedral of Christ Church is situated in the town.
