"Mohr to the District Präses (Chairman)"

Forwards the text of a letter from Imm. Boakye in reply to the instructions posting him to Tafo (?). He is willing to go anywhere he is commanded, but no Akim town wants someone who has been expelled by the Asuums, and has also refused to serve the Okyenhene. Furthermore his goods are still in Asuum. ‘What will he go to Tafo with?’ He asks there either to be left in Kibi, or sent to Kwahu. Meantime, while the Asuum case is unsettled, the cause in Akim goes backwards. Mohr's commentary is that everyone is waiting for something to happen about Asuum - Boakye has been made the scapegoat unfairly - a deputation of Asaum Christians is on the way to Accra to prefer charges against the chief, their expenses shared by all the Akim congregations.
