Meeting of David Livingstone (1813-1873) and Henry Morton Stanley (1841-1904), Africa, ca. 1875-ca. 1940
Image of a drawing portraying the meeting of David Livingstone and the journalist Henry Morton Stanley in 1871. Stanley was sent to find the Scottish missionary and explorer by the New York Herald Newspaper. It was this meeting that gave rise to the famous phase "Dr Livingstone, I presume?". The men are pictured meeting in a village with a hut in the background. A man stands behind Stanley holding the flag of the USA.; This belongs to a series of Church of Scotland Foreign Missions Committee lantern slides relating to David Livingstone (1813-1873), the Scottish missionary who was best known as an explorer of Africa and anti-slavery campaigner. Livingstone was born in Blantyre, Scotland and after working in the local cotton mill from the age of 10 he went on to study medicine and theology in Glasgow in 1836. Having decided to become a missionary he was posted to southern Africa in 1841. In 1845 he married Mary Moffat. During his life Livingstone carried out exploration of southern, eastern and central Africa, he discovered and named the Victoria Falls and it was his meeting with H. M. Stanley during a search for the source of the Nile that gave rise to the popular quotation, "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?". David Livingstone died in Africa on 1 May 1873 and his body was buried in Westminster Abbey.
