                <text>Lists the building operations on mission land, (other than members' houses) carried on the year: Anum - a second cistern, and a 30 lengthening of the chapel Toseng - a 2-room shingle roof teacher's house and a chapel Bose - a new storehouse Kpalime - the swish walls of a new teacher's house Botoku - a 2-room storehouse for the teacher, and an open hall (the elders gave the grass for this building) Bume – a storehouse (built with the help of Christians from Anfoe and the Bume Christians heathen relative) Ntwumuru - chapel enlarged by 50% Alavanyo - a teacher's house and a chapel Worawora - 30% renewal of the chapel Guamang  - the teacher's house is completed and a new chapel begun. Jasikan - the walls of a new chapel. Borada - the walls of the catechist’s house are ready and the timbers needed ready sawn. Together, he writes these show a readiness for community-work on the part of the Christians and the respect with which the Christian community is regarded by the heathen, because from their side too help has come over teachers' accomodation. It is felt to be an honour to have a teacher in one's town, or among one's townpeople. Tension between Christians and heathen has occurred only in Akwamu and Bume. Among the missionaries Pfisterer was sent with the instructions that he should travel in Buem looking for a suitable site for the founding of a European mission station (Lochmann, missionary in Akwamu, got married). Among the local agents Monitor Jonas Awuku 'fell’ and was replaced by Monitor George Ofusu. Catechist Sam. Adow who had been working adequately in Anum had to be dismissed on account of it being discovered that he had been guilty of sexual misdemeanours during his middle school and seminar days. He was replaced by David Sam. Catechist Timoteo Osee was posted to Anum because of the extension of the school into the upper classes. Catechst Chr. Adu was posted to Bume on graduation from the Seminary, Benj. Afari, pupils teacher, was sent to Worawora to replace the dismissed monitor Dako Wilson. A pupil teacher abandoned his work in Ntwumuru (Sam. Ahuna) and had to be replaced by monitor Jerem. Saforo previously intended for Boso. Pfisterer had as his assistant Theophil Asare, re-taken into mission employment. Pupil teacher Charles Nyako was sent to Adele. Chr. Adu and Tim. Osee are from the Anum district - the first to be appointed agents from this district. They are both from Boso. In the bi-yearly courses for the further education of the catechists and teachers they were pleased at the curiosity shown in informal chats about such things as astronomy and electricity. The missionaries between them travelled for 378 days in the year and the catechists and teachers (with Pastor Hall) for at least 332 days - Martin stresses the overall need for more staff in a passage which purports to give a complete account of the villages between the Abe, Konsu, and Volta. In this he only lists 2 on the west bank - Nkami and Akramang. In a passage naming the senior lay Christians who assist him in his preaching in the mid-Volta district he writes that the Kpando presbyter George Amanee is a great help, inter al in translating into Ewe, and Martin takes him to Atawronu, Avhatei, Dseme, Nkami and Akramang. Other senior Christians used in this sort of way are Joseph Anku in the Bume villages, and Emmanu in the Alavanyo villages. Anum - a bad year with a reduction of 7 in the community and 22 people excluded. These included a teacher, a catechist and the Presbyter who was found to have a concubine in the town, and gave up wife and new swish-walled and shingled house to go and live with her. They also went through the list of community members looking at those who were rarely or never to be seen at services. The surviving Presbyter is Albert Oko. The old Presbyter was much respected for his wealth among Christians and heathen alike. Toseng - Martin is very impressed with the work of the teacher, and that of the Presbyter Mose Odankwa. The community increased by 29, including a fetish priest and family. Good relations with the missionaries – visiting them in Anum, and providing carriers for journeys frequently.  Most of the young men can read, and the knowledge of the bible is impressive. Boso - he repeats earlier criticisms of the community, including the point that the spirit of family unity is weak, and that they are in far too easy communication with the heathen. (The latter being not characteristic of Toseng, where the heathen come onto the mission station if they want to see someone). There is a presbyter called Petro who does a good job. Kpalime - a community of elderly farmers who live together in peace and friendship. Tsatei - a stable situation in which Martin thinks the community is growing in understanding of their new religion. Martin writes about the fact that the Wesleyans have started work in Anum. This developed from their work in Peki – one or two excluded Christians – including ex-Presbyter Isaak Amamfo – from Anum and a man who as a catechumen, but whose baptism had been put off by the missionaries because he had taken part in a heathen festival, asked for a Methodist teacher, and got one. When they were visited by the Methodist minister from Kpong, Martin asked him a series of question to which he got no satisfactory answer: Whether they would like the Basel Mission to intervene in an area where the Wesleyans had been working for 30 years? Why they had not gone to Nkwakubeo or Dodi or Abamensam or Miawoani? Whether people who were troubled about the salvation of their soul, or wanted to become holy, had not, a church already in Anum - and whether there were not places for the children still in the Basel Mission school. Was it easier to go to heaven if you were a Methodist? Did he think the Basel Missionaries were teachers of mistaken doctrines? The Methodist minister apologised along the lines that the teacher had instructions not to accept anyone who had already been baptised into the Basel Mission Church without consulting them - at which Martin accused him simply of telling lies. Attached to the report is a statistical abstract of the building state of each community, in which it is stated that Bumi was founded in 1897. This is the year in which a teacher was first posted there.

                <text>The journeys took place in April-May and June-July.  Remarks that Tongo must have been a big town before the Asantes took its population - who thought they were allies of the Asantes - off to Kumasi. On the old site of Tongo is only a farm and three or four poor huts. There is a new Tongo, but still not very populous. In Botoku itself he finds the people already know a lot of the Christian teachings. Their response to his preaching was that without a teacher they cannot go forward - whereon Martin asked them why they were not sending their children to the school in Vakpo. He contrasts his reception in the two Botoku villages Akokome (good) and Adadentam (indifferent if not hostile). In the latter he has seen a man making figurines which he claimed would protect their farms. Sirikpo and its subject village Dota - they were well received, and the linguist in Sirikpo repeated the point that they had wanted a teacher and not received one. Martin repeated his point about the availability of Vakpo. Martin writes about Vakpo. The town seemed unwilling to accept the German flag, and Okyere, the teacher, had actually been threatened secretly in words and in act-by the rich man of the village Dabanka Kwame, to whom Martin reckons the local chief was in debt. Kwame had said that if the Germans came to Vakpo it would be Okyere's fault. The opposition was not deep-rooted or confident - a later piece of information Martin gives is that the Vakpo people heard that the Germans were fighting the Tafis (Avatimes) and sent his army to help them. From the missionaries' point of view the key event was a palaver which happened on evening in the mission house, gearing that Dabanka Kwame had threatened teacher Okyere. Martin demanded that he visit him the same evening. A large group arrived, including the chief, and started to talk Ewe. Martin broke into this repeatedly and said that he was going to speak only to Dabanka Kwame, the others could stay if they liked but he would not attend to them at all. He then found Dabanka Kwame guilty that on the grounds that he had offered Okyere a pacification of a sheep, because there were witnesses to his preparations to ambush Okyere, and because Dabanka Kwame had come to the meeting with such a large number and they had tried diversionary tactics (Dabanka Kwame had himself said that this was because he was afraid.) Nevertheless Martin said they would trouble no more about the business they were Christians and believed in peace, though this was on the condition that no-one was in -future deterred from going to school or services (an elderly female attached to the chief’s household had wanted to become a Christian but had suffered from the chief's interference). This condition to be enforced by Okyere’s reporting such events to Anum and the missionaries taking them up with the German officials at Agome. Furthermore the German government itself had given the missionaries permission to open schools, so they no longer needed to work with the permission of the chiefs. Martin reckoned the Vakpo villages were all more or less closd to listening to their religious message or to their explanations about the value of schools; only in Bohome did he have a large crowd of attentive hearers. In the latter the Ramseyer’s old nurse was a member of the congregation, but she stands very much to one side, and only comes to preaching when a European is present. She claims she has taken off her amulets and is coming, but it is a very slow process. Martin’s description .of the Christians in Bume is fuller than, any other so far. The heads of the Christian families are called Joseph, Daniel, Isaac, William and Johannes. At Huvhe, on Martin’s first visit there, there was difficulty because of a case between the chief of the Bume villages and a baptismal candidate, but otherwise he was always well-received in the non-Christian Bume villages. As indeed in the whole of Amfoi, and in this respect he names especially Wuromahai and Afobu. In Sofievhe (Okyerefo) the people said they would become Christians (After Martin had preached on their being slaves to sin and in need of redemption) - of course he realised after the excitement that they would lack the power to break away, fearing to be the first. In Kpando the congregation is going forward steadily, and Christians hurry to move onto the mission station after they have joined the church. The Kpando chief actually came to the station to greet-Martin which he remarks is a great change from the time of his first visits in 1891 when he and Hall went to see him on the case of a woman who had been mishandled by him and put in the block. In the villages around Kpando also there was a significant response in Asiavhe when.Martin asked who would serve the true God 10 men and youths stood up, and later a young woman told him she had been attending the services in Kpando regularly. In Gagya, (where there was at least one catechumen) a thirty year old man told them he wanted to go to school-  serving the fetishes was an empty exercise - so he would go to Kpando to have his name written down. They were also pressed very strongly to preach in the village of Aban (Abau?) when they did not want to because of the heat. And in another Kpando village Martin met a husband and wife who were going to announce themselves as catechumens, and after talking to the wife Martin writes that he could see she was yet another example of the way the heathen world drives people into the arms of the mission. In Nkonya they had few hearers at Ntwumuru, Kagyabi and Tayi. From Tayi they went by a secret way (cut by the Nkonyas when they thought the Germans were going to attack them) to Wurupon (The people of Tepo were later by no means pleased that a European had found their secret way). In Wurupon they preached to the largest assembly Martin had ever seen in Africa. There were more than two catechumens in Wurupon - two had only recently announced themselves, coming to Hall in Ntwumuru to be taken on as catechumens, and allowing him to cut off their amulets. In Ntwumuru they had two slaves as converts one called Bentoa was already free, the other was his wife, still a slave of an Ntwumuru man. She was called Akua Mmorowa, and could speak no Twi and little Nkonya having been in the district for less than a year. Martin advised her through her husband’s interpreting to work hard, and to attend the daily worship - which Martin was pleased to find later that she had been doing. Her master on finding that she was becoming a Christian had tried to sell her in Alavanyo, but a Christian had seen her there, helped her to get back to the mission station in Ntwumuru, and then faced the threats of the deprived master with the counter-threat that he would be reported to the German colonial regime. In Alavanyo they were well received - in Evhudidi they found a case in process over a young man who had been to Misahohoe and received a letter stating he was a free man in view of the recent Togo Government regulations concerning slavery. The case was settled by Hall (according to Martin that is) who was able to inform the chief and people over the terms of the new laws, and thus frustrate the ex-master from claiming and getting compensation. The thief there, pressed strongly for a teacher for his own people – Martin promised that he would get one, though could not forecast when. Zogbedsi, however, is in contact with the Catholic mission in Lome. Martin lists the Nkonya baptismal candidates as 5 from Wurupon, 5 from Alavnayo and 3 from Ntwumuru, though none of the latter are natives of that place, which, indeed, seeks to be 'dead’. In the four Atawronu villages they were asked for a teacher – though in Agbesia there was a lot of argument when they were preaching. Davigba and Beme are two of the most beautiful villages that Martin had seen on the Gold Coast. He has visited the Tweme villages Atigbota, Avigome, Gyangena, Komfa. The people are Ewes, but both sexes understand Twi. In Atigbota they were very pleased to have a European staying with them at last. In the last named they found a whole village drunk after a funeral custom. The Akhatei villages are no more than hamlets except for Beme. Owisutra he reckons at 11 villages - there.is a demand for teachers there too. Every time he asked why the people of the area spoke such good Twi they told him that they learned it as prisoners of war in Kumasi. In the report is some indication of the content of Martin’s preaching. In one case (the village on the site of old Tongo) he was offered a text by lady who offered her daughter in marriage to him - his approach to her was two pronged, talking firstly about his 'family' in the mission house at Anum, people who loved him because he loved them, and secondly to describe the relation between himself and his wife - including a stress on their common purse out of which she can take money for new clothes whenever she wants. In Tongo itself there were interruptions and arguments - he never troubles to preach in a place where that happens - the people are not serious and consistent. In one of the Sohai villages he was given his text by a man who told him that it was the shade-tree under which they were sitting who had brought the people back from their Asante captivity. In Adadaentam (Botoku) he had straightforwardly told the man who had said that the figure that he was carving would protect crops that he was a lyer. In Sirikpo he used the people’s interest in his European possessions to preach about the European’s conviction that they could not take their possessions with them after_death. In Wurupon be persisted many times with the question (to the priest of Sia) whether or not he was happy, and evidently he was in some places at least preaching to the evangelical question, and asking those who wanted to serve the true God to stand up.

                <text>At a preaching in Amfoi he had discovered considerable support for the restoration of the school, and a form of words which seems to have implied that the elders were quite aware of the special role of the teacher in relation to the children, and furthermore accepted this as the way Christianity would enter their town (i.e. they accepted the content of the Christian message, but could not understand why the teacher had been taken away since there were so many children in their town). Part of the support for the teacher had come from an elder who had in fact sent two sons with the previous teacher when he was posted back to Akwapim - they were now in Class V in Late. The report is partly about problems and policy. It is known informally in the Volta Region and formally in Akropong that the Colonial Government in Togo wants the Basel Mission schools in its territory to teach German. Also it asks for financial support for the senior Volta Region pupils in Anum and Akropong – there were several who had either begun or were within two years of beginning the Middle School course. The latter include four from Vakpo, the most gifted of whom were a son and a nephew of a convert, the nephew being the son of the chief, and four from Ntwumuru. As a background to its suggestions, however, it offers a picture of the position of schools especially in the stations around Anum and between the Abo and the Konsu. The children, Martin writes, like children in Europe do not like the loss of freedom involved in going to school. But providing there is a teacher who understands them and loves them they soon get keen on school (He gives the impression theat the stick is used rarely). Their parents, however, and their maternal uncles, have aims in sending their children to school which differ from those of the missionaries. The main hope is that in 2 of 3 years they will have learned one or two of the high status languahes their parents want them to learn - Twi and English. Martin offers several examples of the value placed on the former. There is a boy from Dsake at the Kpalime School who does not go to the Bremen Schools as he should because his parents want him to learn Twi - this is the root of the wish of the people at Abofrom to be linked to the Basel Mission (via Tsate), and was behind the recent request from Sirikpo for a teacher (In this connection he complains that none of the mission agents have learned Ewe - even Hall, whom be regards as an excellent preacher and popular, uses an interpreter in the Ewe areas). One factor making for difficulty in the schools is that uncles are unwilling to see their nephews, who should make custom for them after their death and thus help to ensure them a proper status in the after-life, moving into the Christian community. Also he cites two cases of people who were rich enough not to worry whether their children went to school at all - one of them the richest man in Anum, who indulges in a lot of conspicuous hospitality to display his wealth. The Anum School has its own coffee plantations, and the boys have also cleared an area for a maize farm.

                <text>A second part of this report concerning a Sunday spent in Kpando is printed as an appendix to the 1896 Annual Report. In general the best school is at Ntwumuru, where the new teacher even teaches the less-well gifted in their homes after hours and clearly understands how to appeal to children. The most worrying school is that at Boso. Best learned are the biblical texts, and songs, and the catechism. But how much they are understood is questionable - they are learned off by heart, so much so that in in the youngest class you only have to say the first few words of the first text in the list the children know and they take it up and recite without a break 50-100 texts. Arnold's Stories for little children and Barth's Bible Stories are treated in the same way. 'Hardly any of the teachers ever tells a story in his own sords in a lively way so as to awake peoples' interest'. The language problem is partly an excuse for this, but Martin judges that by the end of a year the children have made great strides in Twi, and he divides the Class I. syllabus into two years. Arithmetic is the subject worst done by both teachers and pupils. The report offers two case studies of boys converted through the contact with the Anum School. In the first, that of Adae of Vakpo, the boy’s father destroyed his fetishes and amulets without actually registering as a catechumen. The second, Kwasi Mensah, was a son of the chief in Ntwumuru, and Martin transmits an account of a letter he had written to his father as Martin heard of it from Hall. The letter advises his father to become a Christian rehearsing the familiar point about the nothingness of the fetishes, and saying that he saw evidence of God every day in nature, and in his own heart.
