"Strahan to Widmann (2 letters)"

Letter from 21 January 1876 A very cordial letter, asking after the family etc. His ‘impression’ is that the missionaries in Kwahu would have nothing to fear from Asante, although doubtless there will be endeavours made by the king to bring back Kwahu to its former allegiance. However he wants to wait on the return of Gouldsbury from his next trek before expressing himself further. Letter from 24 February 1876 Gouldsberry has no information on Kwahu, but Strahan would be ‘surprised’ if – whatever attempts were made ba the Asantes vis-à-vis Kwahu, the Europeans were in any way ’molested’.
