Norma Lorimer, By the Waters of Africa: British East Africa, Uganda, and the Great Lakes, 1917  Miss Allen and Miss Pike are quite landmarks in Uganda; they were amongst the earliest missionaries to come out, and they know the country inside out. They have a very good garden, with lovely flowers and fruits and vegetables. There is a big brick church with an iron roof attached to the Toro Mission. It has window frames, but no windows. The service is held in Buganda. In the mission school they are trying to encourage the native weaving industry. They were very successful and a little time ago had quite a number of looms in the school, and a very good sale for the coloured linens they made. When the idea was first started, Miss Allen went to some other settlement, where they had a native weaving industry, and learned the trade. She brought the knowledge back to the Toro Mission, and soon quite a number of children and women were adept at the loom. Their wide striped linens of bright native dyes were especially attractive.
