This footage takes place in the Himalayan hill station of Mussoorie, a municipal board in the Dehradun district, founded by the East India Company. The area's British influence is apparent, the footage opens with a group of British officials outside a columned, designated government building and then moves into the village, where most signs are displayed in English. Williams records shots of the landscape as a means of gaging the elevation and sub-tropical climate (the visible mist and humidity) of the hill station.
