Mader summarises the information given by the missionaries. He comments the Akim case shows the Government should intervene there 'our stations are not free cities'. In a subscript Widmann remarks that about 200 slaves have run away in Akwapim. Many of the freed slaves on the coast must have died in the small-pox epidemic. He sees a particular problem in the situation of the elderly and frail slaves who can no longer look after themselves. Akwapim is over-run with Crepes who are afraid to return to their own lands until they are again part of the British Protectorate.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 20.02.1864 Proper date: 20.02.1864 Description An account of the resource Spells Strömberg’s and Zimmermann's ‘Asadsohale 'Asutyaree'. Zimmerman's party arrived at Awlotoi at 1 a.m. at the beginning of their journey into Anum country. 'The Ayigbe country and its capital Pekyi' is the home of the cotton brought out of the upper Volta country: and the area from which still more cotton can be obtained. On the other hand there is no cotton market by European standards in the district. Even in Pekyi's regular market, the cotton offered for sale is in small quantities. A cotton market could be built up around the provision of cleaning machinery. Cotton is already planted, e.g. by the Kyerepongs around Anum, but it is to be hoped that the area would be increased if trade opened up. Anum is as much of a cotton market as Pekyi, with Ayigbes bringing their cotton there for sale. Mader had travelled Asutyaree to Anum. This is a route used to by-pass Akwamu in wartime. Dodi is preferable to the Volta shore opposite Pese in that the village is built on a steep slope above the river and so is secure from floods, while the shore opposite Pese is low-lying, and the permanent settlement would probably have to be some distance away from the river. Dodi's disadvantage is that it is a Kyerepong town. In times of war the Akwamus would bar the Volta to people from Dodi. He gives a rather more extended town list in the Anum district (of Kyerepong towns, at least), with populations: Boso, 3,000, much cotton growing. Dodi, 800. The two Toseng villages, 1,200—1,400. Kwasitia, 4-500. Nkwakubew, 600. Anum, 4-5000. This group lives in its villages, and doesn't spread itself around the country in farming hamlets. He does not consider, if Anum is made the Basel Mission's main mission- and trading—post, that there is any danger in the foreseeable future that a settlement on the river will surpass it as a commercial centre. His summary judgement: Anum should be the new station, and the bank opposite Pese should be made the shipment point for goods conveyed on the river.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 25.05.1853 Proper date: 25.05.1853 Description An account of the resource (a) his account of the war-scare adds nothing to what has already been said, except that Akwapim made its war-customs, and asked the British government for weapons, powder and lead. Mader points out that it was all a rumour- and compares it with a scare that the French were about to invade which swept Schwabia in March 1848. b) He also offers an account of the history of Akwapim, which he comments is a war-history like that of the Swiss – a people searching for freedom (though on a smaller scale). He says it is translated ‘from the mouths of the people', and the text of the history is indeed in quotation marks. Previously the Akwanu people lived between Nyanawase in the Accra area to Kekwaprangase (or Tekwaprangase, the initial consonant is not clear) (now) an Akim village near the Akwapim farms. Their king was called Ansasraku. His subjects had become so many that he could not call them together by messenger, as the custom is, but would let off a cannon to call them together, (Mader comments that he does not know if this is true, but it is not at all unlikely that the Portuguese or the Dutch would give such an important Chief a cannon to mark some treaty which had been concluded). The Akwapims were among Ansasraku’s subjects. They were treated no different from wild animals, however, as for example if a father gave his son a gun an d sent him into the bush to hunt, if he found an Akwapim he would shout ‘Are you a man or an animal?’ If the Akwapim did not answer on the spot, the Akwamu would shoot him without a second thought. The Akwapims put up with this sort of thing for a long time, but in the end they sent an ambassader to the king of Akim to tell him that because they had no chief the Akwamu were treating them like wild animals and that if he would send them a hard-neckled leader, who would drive away the Akwamu, they would serve the King of Akim. At this the King of Akim’s brother swore the war-oath to the King and prepared to attack the Akwamu. The King chose warriors, armed them, and put them under the orders of his brother: and they set out. The leader instructed the Akim and Akwapim warriors to remain in two groups, the Akwapim marching toward the enemy first, while he stayed with his people in the rear. When the Akwamu heard that the Akwapims were coming to attack them, they said scornfully ‘The Dokunno are freely giving themselves to the dogs - let us catch them like little chickens'. When soon after they heard the beat of drums, several scouts were sent out. They did not see the Akims, however. They were able to shoot most of them, and the few survivors fled back and said ‘Red people are coming, what shall we do?' The Akims are called the red people because they are not so black as the other negro tribes. At this the Akwamus gathered their people and divided them into one force to fight the Akwapims, and one force to fight the Akims, but they were heavily defeated, and those of them that survived fled to the Volta, crossed it, and settled on the other bank. Then the Akwapims invited the King of Akim's brother to be their king: as the proverb has it, ‘If you have no master, anyone at all can sell you'. He in turn sent to the king of Akim and asked his instructions. He replied ‘I know that the Akwapim are no nation because they have no king, so if you wish it, stay there are rule over them’. When the brother fetched his mother and family from Akim, and settled them thee in what is now the Akropong king's village of Amamprobi, an hour from here, later they wanted to be on the hills, and so they built Akropong, and we live here still. lt is usually the case for the Akims and the Asantes to be enemies - they were constantly at war. ln the same way the Akwapims and the Accras clashed. They killed each other without mercy, no Accra man dared to be found on the Akwapim hills, and if they wanted to work on farms near the hills, they were either chased away, or made captive, or killed. The produce of such farms in fact belonged to the Akwapims. This caused the Accras to send embassies to the Asantehene to ask him to intervene on their behalf against the Akwapims. The Asante army drove the Akims and Akwapims out of their towns into the Fante country. FoIlowing this, the Akwapims had to promise to serve the Asantehene, sending yearly a tribute: 2 large pewter plates, 100 baskets of salt, 300 men (probably for sacrifice), gold to the value of 660 Thalers. This went on until the Europeans began to wage war against the Asantes and drove theml out of our land. Had this not happened we would be now slaves of the Asantehene but now we own our own heads, eat our own bread and live in our own land.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 21.04.1854 Proper date: 21.04.1854 Description An account of the resource A rather more detailed description than previously of the Akropong villages on the road into Akim. Compared with the previous report (23 Mar 1852) there is lest detail about the Akim part of the journey. Of the list of settlements before Kukurantumi is reached which is provided in that report, Koforidua is mentioned here, as-a hunting village, and Panto is now said to be an Akim farming village consisting of three huts. Kukurantumi he mentions as having two large clumps of bamboo at each end of the village which could each provide shade for an assembly of 500-800 men. This is an indication that like many Akim towns Kukurantumi is divided into two parts. The fetish in Kukurantumi had forbidden the fetching of water, which caused some difficulty. This was a prohibition on the people as a whole. The missionaries Knaben (this presumably means their servants not the students who were with them) took the trouble to fetch water themselves. From Kukurantumi the village names are given - Ati, Tafo, Osem, Fankyeneko, then 4 hours through the bush to the Birim, which they crossed on a tree trunk which had fallen across the river. Little is said about Gyadam, the results of the conversations with-Süss having already been communicated. Good numbers of people attended morning prayers in the courtyard-of the house where Mader and Dieterle lodged, and evening prayers were said in the Chief's house. (Dieterle preached on Ps, 94v9, the pupils sang hymns.) Mader comments that Gyadam a nice place. On the way home they passed through Kibi, where the King prepared a ceremonial welcome for them - drummers at the entrance to the town and a half hour spent exchanging greetings (The two Akim ‘princes’ were part of the missionaries’ party). They stayed two days in Kibi, though little is said about what they spent their time doing – altough Mader comments that the king is great friend of their visits being exchanged both when they are in Kibi, and when he is journeying through Akropong or in Osu. The missionaries’ pupils were requested to sing for him. Prayers were attended by townspeople, and on the second day they held a service in the King’s house (Mader’s text, was I Cor. c8v9). They tried to recruit some children for upbringing, but while the King's brother was willing to send one, another man was not. The villages on the route back are given once more as Oponto, Tete, Boate; at Kukurantumi, where they spent the night again there were 40 people present when Mader preached in the evening, but they were not sympathetic (Mader comments that at the end they wanted money).

He reports a continued demand for a teacher at Kukurantumi, and in Tafo a request for a teacher but he must be African. Odumase is said to belong to Fankyenenko. The texts of their morning’s preaching in Gyadam are given as Matthew 16vv25-6 and Mark 9vv9-13 (the latter on the question of the nature of the resurrection). The baptisms were 9 out of a baptism class of 13. To the information on the individuals involved given in letter No 19, can be added: (i) This man was from Mmarewa, and had been bought free - Jacobo Akyimang.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 30.03.1864 Proper date: 30.03.1864 Description An account of the resource Includes a short section on Kibi. It refers to Abraham Atitsogbe, who bought the slave of an Asante who was killed in the recent fighting between Asante and Akim for 3 dollars. He then made her his wife, with the concurrence of the missionaries, since his proper wife had returned to Osu, and had let him know that she was living with another man. After about 6 months she returned, however, and the husband took her up again apparently on the grounds that she had showed her devotion by travelling so far into the interior to come to him. Mader in aftermath of this situation tried to get the husband hand to slave over to missionary Kromer as a servant, but Atitsogbe proposed instead that in four years the woman should be set quite free, but should in the meantime serve him and his wife - as strangers in Kibi they needed a maidservant. Mader tried to dissuade him from this with threats of exclusion, since it would create a very questionable set-up.

There is also information on Jonathan Palmer's slaves. One was a c.40 year old woman from Kurosi 'in Donko’, for whom he had paid 46 dollars in 1856. Another was an Awuna boy, Asem Nyame, about 18 years old, for whom he had paid 45 dollars in August 1859. The last was Nyame ye Adom from Crepe, bought in eraly 1864 for 47 dollars (the transfer had not been effective because the woman, about 50 years old, was ill). These were freed on 1st January, (though it seems that they are expected to go on working either for Palmer for a very small wage, or for one or other of the missionaries).

The first Akwamu town reached was Kotropee, apparently on the bank of the Volta, A fetish priest here .forbade the catechist trainees from entering any of the houses because they were wearing European clothes. In Akwamu they were received and lodged by a ‘Feldherr’ by name Kwame Boo, probably accompanied with Mader because it was late evening, and there was a fetish prohibition on the King meeting them. In the morning the King received them with full ceremony in the assembly of his elders and people with firing of guns etc. In describing Akwamu Mader writes as if the development of trading is something to happen in the future - they foresee a time when there will be steamboat connections between Ada and Akwamu, though the river will not prove easy to navigate where it flows past the end of the Akwapim mountains. The, town site is little above the level of the river's and is therefore hot, especially as it is hemmed in on three sides by hills. There are also swamps around it in the wet season. Around it are groups of ruined housed, and there is discussion as to whether these are from some previous river-side town, or whether they are a sign that Akwamu itself has declined. Mader estimates that it has about half of the population of Akropong: They are farming peoples, mostly in cooperation with the local peoples. Akwamu seems to be in some sort of secret alliance with Asanti, and could be a bridge between Akwapim and Asante. The king’s rule seems rather despotic, and this makes Akwamu like Asante, so does the history of the cruelties of the former Akwamu, though publicly at least these are no longer practised on such a scale. The missionaries noted that they saw hardly one healthy young man in the town, and people seemed old before their time. Though the chief welcomed them, his face was stamped with a coarse vulgarity. The whole life of the town seemed subject to the fetishes, and Kwame Boo told them in quite matter of fact way that 4 slaves had been killed at the recent death of one of the members of the Royal family. For the present Akwamu seems closed to the mission (this refers not to a prohibition by the king, but the likelihood of a response to the mission by the people). On leaving, they received no satisfactory reply to their request for a son of the king to be sent to school, and they were delayed for several hours by “deceitfulness” on the part of the king, when they were set to return (NB: the mission in Osu had had a lot to do with a son of the king, now about 10 years old, who had been. in the fort as a hostage, and who suffered from epilepsy). After their return to Akropong, Mader heard that Kwane Boo who lad looked after them very well, had been accused of poisoning and condemned to death. This is report he had reason to believe was true. The local mission people believe that he was really not guilty, and that he was removed by the king because of his wealth and eminence.
