Repentance Camp for Communists in Chongqing 重庆关押共产党员的反省院
In 1932, James G. Endicott was dispatched with his fellow missionaries to carry out proselytizing activities and teach English to Communists interned at a political prison in Chengdu, known as a “repentance camp” (反省院 fanxing yuan). This photograph was taken to commemorate a musical concert prepared by the prisoners for the children of their missionary teachers.

1932年，文幼章与其他传教士一起被派往成都，在一座被称为“反省院”的政治监狱中开展传教活动，并教授被关押的共产主义者学习英语。这张照片是为了纪念由囚犯为传教士教师的孩子们筹备的一场音乐会而拍摄的。
