                <text>pp 1-5: Account of the ships journey to the Gold Coast. Advisability not to send brethren on boats coming from Bremen since these need half a year to reach the Gold Coast and are not fitted out for passengers.  pp 6-7: About the school at Ussu: Thompson is doing well, the children make much progress. There is the need for a European to be stationed there, so that besides the school evangelization and care for the Europeans and Mulattoes can be taken. Thompson has not the time and gifts for it. He has his faults as they all have and should be treated with love and patience, as they must be treated. In the quarrel Riis-Thompson both parties are guilty. On the Halleur affair he cannot say anything.  p 7: At Akropong they felt at once at home. But because of political disturbances and the Halleur affair, many things still are very primitive. In the first week they slept in one little room all together, but now each one has a room. There is only one real bed for the newly arrived brethren, no chairs, no writing desk, no cupboard for their clothes. Compare with this the palaces of the Methodists, but also their enormous expenses (£ 15-16.000 a year). He is now very busy making furniture, but the first need is furniture for the chapel. Glad to have two carpenter apprentices of a very good character and disposed to the Gospel, although a little bit slow in work. Desperate need to preach in the surrounding villages.

Hence he began packing and sending the goods brought by the brethren which stood round in a store, partly damaged by termites, since there was nobody looking after them. He found carriers only till Adjamante, half way, whence they gradually will have to bring the goods to Akropong. Riis justifies himself against the accusation that he had interfered into the political matters of Akwapim. He claims that he had only opposed Adum for moral and Christian reasons and that on occasions he had also protected Adum from his adversaries. That he was not simply an agent of the Danish Government is seen from the fact that he remained ummolested, while the Africans of Akwapim forced the governor who had gone two third of the way to return to the Coast.

                <text>Parts printed: Heidenbote 1846, pp 37-38: News on school at Akropong.  Not printed: It was bitter for him to be put mainly in charge of carpentry while he longed so much to work with children and had been used so often in the school of his father. But God's ways are not their ways (p 1). School, three classes. The children often beg for things, a little piece of paper, an old pen and especially trousers and clothes. He told them that he did not want this begging but would give presents to the best and most industrious in school and on their farms (p 3). Besides the school, which takes 4 hours daily, he works hard at the carpentry teaching the two apprentices and doing all the joining and much of the other work himself. Riis is driving him hard. He wishes he could do more, but he is often so tired. He now understands Halleur although he will not excuse him (p 3f). Long and sad description of differences with Riis over the matter of his treatment of the West Indians. Sebald and Widmann tried to protect Hosford from being beaten by the slave of Riis Aschong. The matter of not enough clothes being given to the West Indians, palaver over corn brought for sale by Clerk. Sarcastic and ironical words of Riis.

                <text>Comments on the manuscript for the new Twi reader. It is still a provisional book till a thorough study of the language has been made. Contents: Sounds, words, little sentences, biblical stories, ten commandments, creed, Lord's prayer, a few short prayers and hymn verses. There should be printed not less than 150 copies. Illustrations to the biblical stories would be of great value. Principles of spelling and word division. Riis pleases to speed up the printing, they need the book badly and do not want the school to become all English. His uncle (Andreas Riis) has been able to send a man from Ashanti proper for their language study with the help of a trader in English Accra. He is fairly well suited for the job.

                <text>Andreas Riis will leave for Europe the next day. He is very bitter against the other missionaries, especially against the young brethren. The house he bought in Ussu and repaired with mission funds he wants the missionaries to pay rent for. He has in it also a Dane, Dr.Hansen, who sells brandy in it, even on a Sunday. Riis sold much of his clothes and even mission clothes, which the missionaries would badly need for the West Indians.

                <text>Glad that the committee at last agrees to the stationing of a missionary at Christiansborg. About Riis’ house at Ussu: Dr. Hansen whom he allowed to stay in the hones is drunk daily and makes a lot of noise. He pleases the committee send them goods. There are only guns and powder to be got in the fort and their instructions prohibit them to sell such. Their own people at Akropong have been stealing from the missionaries, especially interpreter and supervisor Ashong. He showed no repentence so they had to dismiss him. Good relations and hope with the West Indians. Andreas Riis had auctioned their only horse left, they had to buy it back for the mission. He took it to Akropong, where it created quite a stir, a horse is here as rare as an elephant in Germany. Adum shall be sent to the West Indies with a warship which is due soon there. Went to Ussu because of sickness (abscess on lips) of H. Riis.
