Description: A class portrait of the Chinese students and their Western faculty at the Union Theological School. The Congregational, Episcopal, and Methodist churches are all represented. Sixth in from the left hand side of the second row from the front is the Rev. Lyman Peet. (Several of the students are marked with the initials I. H. This may stand for Ing Hok [Ing Tai]. This in turn possibly indicates that these students were congregants of the Rev. E. H. Smith's church at Ing Tai.)

This photo is from the papers of the Edward Huntington Smith family. The Smiths were a family of missionaries serving under the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions in China, 1901-1950, primarily in Ing Tai and Foochow [Fuzhou].
