"Eisenschmid's Note applying for Money to the Basel Mission Slave Emancipation Commission"
Description
Concerns one Kwame Ayeribe from Apapam. After a year in the boarding school during which he had a good name, he was taken away by force and given to Asumaneng of Apapam as pawn to cover a loan of 27 dollars. He has since appealed both to Haas and Eisenschmid to be bought out of this. Eisenschmid likes his open and honourable face, he makes a good impression, and asks for 27 dollars from the Slave Emancipation account to buy him free. He will then work as Eisenschmid's house servant until the sum is paid off.
