says:

"Bayanzi Execution Congo 1885"

1. But in the full resolution picture I can read no "a" after the first letter "B" in the hand writing.

2. The word ending reads for me possibly ...ny or ...nzj

3. Bayanzi seems to be the usual expression.

I would recommend to cite:

"Bayanzi (Byanzj) Execution" "(Signet of Edward James Glave) Congo 1885" "Mus. Congo" (circular stamp)

Or in 1 line:

"Bayanzi (Byanzj) Execution, (signet of Edward James Glave) Congo 1885, (circular stamp:) Mus. Congo"
