Item Details
Title:
"Petition from Sam Gyima"
Description
Asks for re-instatement claiming that he has not done this before on the grounds that his mother in law would not permit his wife to become a Christian, but now she is dead. His account of the troubles of the 1870s is that he was not received with honour in his own country, but then there is precedent for that. Eisenschmid subscripts that there doesn’t seem trace of penitence in the petition – Preiswerk that he has been conditionally taken on as teacher in Kibi.
