"Marquart's Report for the Year 1883"

Kibi and Begoro are now a unit under Buck. Huppenhauer and Marquard are in charge of Begoro. In Anyinam they had needed help in restoring the partly fallen-in catechist's house. This was provided by Jos. Müller. Two heathens have been baptised in the last year, still opposition from the heathens. Many of the members of the community go off or up to three months at a time trading. In Fankyeneko the house has been almost completely destroyed by rains after part of the roof was left uncompleted. Anoff’ replacement as catechist, Anang from Kwabeng, is virtually useless. It is a great pity that the little community was destroyed by the effort of building the house. In Begoro Sakyi’s marriage is proving no good example to the community. 10 adults and 4 children were baptised. Somewhat greater life has been seen in the latter part of the years the services are better attended than before. The first efforts have been made to preach in the farming villages around Begoro.
