"Weimer to Basel"

With the arrival of missionary Buss on the station in March came 5 carpenters, though one has since returned to the coast. Weimer can now speak twi. He reports a frequent saying among the workmen that when the buildings are finished they will all come up here and worship God, and their children will come to the .school. They have restored the damage to the mission house by setting up plank walls instead of swish ones for the Second storey. (There is a subscript by Mader complimenting the missionaries on their speedy reactions to the earlier storm damage. He also says that he hears David Asante has 'brought back a horse and a cow from Salaga).
