| Description: | Elder Reid S. Shepard recently gave a collection of artifacts from Peru and Bolivia to the Heritage Room, a Seventh-day Adventist archive at Andrews University. Included are native cloth and Indian clothing, pottery and spinning equipment, tools taken from Inca graves, imitations of ancient relics sold to tourists, drawings of Indians, a picture of Rosario Mauri Indian SDA Mission taken in 1925, and ears of corn and dried peppers from the graves of Coast Indians said to have been buried over 1,000 years ago. Elder Shepard is a 1917 graduate of Emmanuel Missionary College. He and Mrs. Shepard were missionaries to Peru and Bolivia, and they began the first Adventist mission station in Bolivia in 1920. The first station was the Rosario Missionary Station some 50 miles from La Paz. They returned to the U.S. in 1929 due to Mrs. Shepard's illness, and later lived in San Bernardino, CA |
