Biographical article, "Fra Jæren til præriens misjonsmark," published in "Jul i Rogaland," 1964. Reverend Njaa emigrated from Rogaland in 1892 and was ordained a Lutheran pastor in 1899. The article deals chiefly with his early experiences and his stay in Canada, after which he served a Northwood, North Dakota, parish for fifty years. Several photographs from Norway, Canada, and North Dakota are included. Also in the collection, found on the folio shelf, are a scrapbook, "Minder fra Svundne Dager," together with three sets of pictures from North Dakota, Canada, and China.
