"Mullings' Report on the Kukurantumi Area"

6 young people excluded for adultery and drunkenness, 6 old women died, the congregation of the district at the end of the year numbering 144 with 6l communicants and 4 non-communicants, the rest being children. The most recent Kukurantumi baptism included 5 emancipated slaves, and 6 natives of the town. There is a school in operation, with 29 pupils. Most of the emancipated Christians have left their station and made their settlement at Accra and has become heathens. These people bring great troubles on the station and it is good they leave it. Ewi is still working in Tafo, but there was only one baptism in the year and the community totals 13. Osiem - 14 in the community, 2 exclusions of women who (sisters) sacrificed a sheep for the sake of an ill uncle who was told he was ill because his nieces had become Christians. Mmease - progress (community now 10) and the chief friendly, offering to give land. Anyinasin - a five months struggle because though they liked having an evangelist (John Amoa) they did not like his goats. In the end the threat toremove the evangelist apparently ensured the reception of the goats. A preaching tour of the Juaben villages was well received, and in Afidwase street dancing was stopped for their preaching. They want someone to settle there with them.
