Description

John White of Mashonaland. Born in 1866 in England's Lake District, the eldest of seven children, John White received only a smattering of formal education. As a youth, White had a conversion experience and sought to become a Methodist missionary. In 1896 the Mashonaland Rebellion broke out, and the Mashona were fearful of being annihilated by the British. White told them, to the consternation of British authorities, "I will sleep each night amongst you outside the laager, so that if they come to kill you, they will kill me also."
