Title:
"Widmann from Akropong"
Description
Glad, that A. Riis at home has acknowledged some of his faults. About the schoolbook: 500 copies are too much, the book needs revision very soon. H.N. Riis does a good job with his grammatical sense. Need for a small printimes press in future. Need for a mission builder - state of the buildings at Akropong. The white ants eat the grass roof, they replaced it with shingles. The stone house built for Thompson originally could be finished in a short time. He got lime transported to here from Prampram. Their last horse brought from Jamaica has died, but a young bull and cow are doing well. The new chief Kvav Dade, a young man, has forgiven his ennemies, and Adum's mother formerly a trouble maker, now lives at peace in Akropong. Still no bride found for Widmann. Shall he give up the plan? Requirements.
