"Mischlich to Basel"

A 35 page report of a journey into Tschantscho, with a detailed map (see No. 181). This account is partly printed in Heidenbote 1896 p94-95, as also in Missionsmagazin 1897, p188ff and 249. Additional material: Under his comments for 25th Jun, his arrival at the first Fasogu farming settlement, that not only is it unthinkable to see such farming as is in the Fasogu area in Adele, this reflects the fact that unlike in Adele there will be an appreciable number of people holding 100 slaves, and the biggest farms must need 300 slaves. The Fasogu and still more the Tsahantscho people have wider horizons than the Adeles, who rarely leave their own district, are more au fait and progressive. Under 29th June, from the Fasogu border they met no rhea-butter trees, till they found a few at the village of Kolenggebua. The two Odumase Christians he called Noa and Christian Tei. No. 191 is an accompanying letter to this report.
