Calabar 1954


This photograph must show some kind of reunion at Calabar in 1954 as Dr. Glover retired from his service in Nigeria in 1939. He did serve in Cyprus during the War Years but after the war took on full time retirement. This may well have been at his old hospital in which he had worked at Calabar in the 1930s. Interestingly Dr Glover obviously recalls that he was suffering from toothache during this occasion.
