Brother Biko,

First of all, I would like to wish you a happy and successful year 2020.
Last year, you sent on the forum the message below with an article of Howard  French, ''Africa's Lost Kingdoms'' that displayed a picture of the envoyee of the Kongo. Now that I want to use it I could not find it on the Internet.

In case you have saved it on your computer, please forward it to me.
I thank you in advance and hope to hear from you soon.
Kind regards.
Patrick
