A procession with clergy and attendants followed by a banner and congregation.
Processions were held at Modderpoort on feast days and went from the Priory Chapel to the Cave Church.
The books held by the people are probably copes of the Sesotho hymnbook, Lifela ta Kereke, several editions of which were produced at Modderpoort. It contained hymns for processions on feast days.
Undated, second half of the 20th century (?)
