"Koranteng's Report"

In the chapel building he had only one skilled assistant - the rest of the people had to be taught e.g. shingling. He himself was busy with the stone-breaking and building in swish. One woman has to be excluded for adultery, and another suspended from communion for quarrelsomeness. He announces 'the sorrowful death of our dear chief Ampaw'. He discovers Ampaw's successor has no interest in attending Koranteng's preaching. In the district he has had attentive hearers especially at Tafo where the people press for a teacher of their own, In Mmase there are Christians - 3 adults and 2 children. Andreas Ewi, whose travelling was curtailed through illness, visited the Juaben towns - the chiefs there order their people out to listen to street preaching as Koranteng found out himself in 1879 when travelling to Akwapim.
