Type of title	translation
Original caption	Johanne Nzimonya, Lehrer (Vetter des Königs).
Description	Note: "Kg. Ndj. Veter Johane Nzimonga Lehrer, v. vornen. Ein Halbbruder von Mose Yeyab ist Johanne Nzimonga. Er ist, wie jener auch Lehrer an der Missionsschule, und wohl derjenige, der auch in schweren Zeiten am ruhigsten blieb und auf den wir uns am besten verlassen können! Unbekümmert um Lob oder Tadel geht er still seiner Wege, tut seine Pflicht als ein 'Freigeborener', trägt das Haupt hoch und hat ein demütiges Herz! Er hat bis jetzt dem Christentum noch keine Schande gemacht, sondern nur Ehre!" (Wuhrmann, A., 1917. Beschreibung zu den Lichtbildern aus Bamum. E-30-0,6).; Note translation: "K[in]g Mj[oya's] cousin, Johanne Mzimonga, a teacher, from the front. Johanne Nzimonga is a half-brother of Mose Yeyab. Like Yeyab he is also a teacher in the mission school, the one who stayed calmest then times were difficult, and the one we could rely on most. He was not concerned with praise or blame, but went quietly on his way, doing his duty as pne free-born, carries his head high, and has a humble heart. He has given the gospel no cause for shame, but instead lived to its honour and glory." (A. Wuhrmann, Commentaries on the Slides from Bamum, E-30-6, K 343.)
