"Asante to Basel"
Item Details
Title:
"Asante to Basel"
Description
Remarks over the repairing of the mission house in Kukurantumi, that Akim shingle roofs seem to last only 8 years or so, while in Akwapim, with the more suitable wood available, they last for 20-30 years. Widmann adds in a subscript that the same wood is used in Akim and Akwapim, it is simply that the wetter Akim climate makes for less suitable wood for shingels, and even then no Akwapim roof would last for 20 years without thorough repairs after at most 12.
