                <text>Danish Governor is back. Did not get the permission to have English as medium of instruction in the school of the fort. Kindly disposed towards the mission (p 1). At Akropong, Widmann has begun the first Ashanti school with later 12 boys on the 24th September. Teaching is mainly in Twi but there is also a little English taught (pp 1-2). Matters concerning Thompson (p 2).  pp 3-6 were written on 31st January 1845. Parts printed in Missionsmagazin 1845, pp 110-112.  Not printed: Death of little Emilie Riis (p 3). The sad news of the murder of Owusu Akyem made them sick. 11 of their servants - Christiansborg men - left them secretly, fearing that the Akropong people would take revenge on them for the evil done to Akropong people in Christiansborg. They remain with the missionaries faithfully. Mrs. Riis seriously ill. Death of daughter, Owusu Akeym tragedy being too much for her. The others recovered (pp 3 f). In spite of the bitterness between Akropong and Ussu they could find Ussu people to bring them goods and they were never molested (p 4). But one day 7 Ussu carriers for the missionaries beaten and put into block by the Akropongs. In order to get them free, they had to pay 64 rigsdalers (p 4-5). Dismissal of Halleur (p 5-6).  pp 6-12 written on the 12th February 1845: Arrival of the three new missionaries 17th January. Sickness of Mrs. Riis. Widmann works at a second textbook in Ashanti The first, printed in Basel, proved useful (p 6). The committee wants no station on the Coast, but Riis knows how inconvenient it is to travel up and down and up and down all the time. There should be a European at Ussu (p 7). There is a need for a Mission house in Ussu. The owner of the house where the school is now deals a lot in fetishes and therefore discredits the school’s' witness (pp 7-8). Riis asks for home leave on health reasons for himself and wife (p 8). There is no reason to make the Ashanti dictionary an Ashanti-English and German dictionary. English will do, everybody here must learn English and the dictionary must serve the Mission (p 9). About the plan to train teacher for the Gold Coast in Barbados: Not suitable, language difficulties etc. High costs (pp 9-11).

See: Missionsmagazin 1845, pp 106-109.  Not printed: Guilt of the Governor: Interfering too late and listening to his Mulatto wives (p 1). The soldiers of the fort are bribed by Adum and maltreat the Akropong refugees in the fort. The Governor wants to reinstall Adum and to build a fort at Akropong. He has sent the missionaries a Danish flag, but they are not going to hoist it at Akropong, that is the Governor's palaver. Emilie Riis died on the 21st November 1844.

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.
