dc.description.abstractDescription on the postcard: Trinidad (i.e. Trinity Island), discovered by Columbus on Trinity Sunday, 1498. The S.P.G. supports work here and throughout the greater part of the West Indies. A branch of the King’s Messengers S.P.G. has been started.” The postcard shows an East Indian family outside their home – an ajoupa or tapia hut. The walls of these types of huts are usually made from a mixture of clay, grass, cow dung and water while the roof is usually made from carat or palm leaves.en
