Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: May 1852 Proper date: May 1852 Description An account of the resource Made a short visit to Logong on Feb 6th, to talk to the baptismal candidate Sang who lived there. The report also offers a summary of Zimmermann's activities in the agricultural field since his arriving in Christiansborg. He made an experimental garden around the church in Christiansborg, and had had rather slight success with cereals (Korn), beans, cabbages, kohlrabi, and Luzern. A certain amount of Luzern survived, and seemed to have acclimatised well, he has still also a few tobacco plants, one vine, one Kohlrabi plant, and a few been plants. So he has turned to experiments with tropical crops, which have been more encouraging. In the last quarter of 1851 the long-neglected plantation at Abokobi was taken in hand... ....little seems to have remained from the planting of the previous owners. Zimmermann blames the weather mostly, tho' the lack of constant attnntion was also to blame for this. In the new year (1852) Zimmermann recruited 9 labourers to work at a 5 1/2 x 7 hour week, at Fr. 3.20 per month, and a cloth yearly on Christmas Day. With all other expenditures 6 months expenditure should come to Fr. 140. Altogether he expects to have 6-8 Juchart of land under cultivation in the coming rainy season. He planned to plant these with a mixture of local food crops and cash crops, naming for the latter arrowroot, cotton, coffee, and perhaps sugar-cane. He advises the presence of European supervision, which he calculates would mean 25% more work being done. He hopes to go to Cape Coast to study Freeman's extensive plantation at first hand. As for the development of Christiansborg from this angle, cotton and other commodities could he grown - if the existing Institute were to be turned into a boarding school, the scholars could provide the labour. Two years ago they had four head of cattle, four more were bought later. Two of these were lost, two died, and five have been slaughtered. 6 head remain. The capital invested in cows is Fr. 250, Fr.150 has been paid as rent for their stalls, The value of the slaughtered cattle has been Fr 60 each, and allowing for cost of herding, the loss over two years has been Fr. 170. The value of the milk obtained was negligeable. He sugeests these attempts at cattle rearing should be continued in the grasslands around Christiansborg, remembering that with an increased herd losses will be reduced since the cattle will stick together better, the labour costs will average out at less per head of cattle, and there is some hope that they will become able to milk all the cows as they currently do at Elmina, As soon as possible therefore he proposes to buy cows from the lower coast, where they are cheap. Horses have also proved their worth - see the conference protocol asking the Home Committee for permission to increase the holding of horses on the Christiansborg station. The mission also possesses about 120 head of sheep and goats on the two stations and at Abokobi. In the last 9 months 30 have been lost through theft and negligence, and a lot have succumbed to disease, But even so 40-50 have been slaughtered, and 60 remain. Expenditure has been in the region of Fr. 650 for the animals, Fr. 50 for food, while the value of the remaining animals is Fr.240, the value of the slauhhtered Fr. 200, and the milk (from the goats) has been worth at least Fr.130, together making a credit of Fr. 570. The loss in this field has been therefore Fr.130, but the last quarterly result have been much better and therefore he hopes to have better long-term results than this. (He names the most serious disease as “Reute”, this may be the same as “Räude” which means simply mange). This means sheep and goats are easier and more profitable than cows to raise...they are easier to acquire too. A local goat costs Fr. 3 1/2, a goat from Europe Fr.7, and a sheep (provenance not clear) Fr. 5 on the average. One factor to take into account in discussing the raising of sheep and goats is that the missionaries are going to need fresh healthy meaty and milk, and these are not always to be had, especially the latter. Zimmermann lists the prices of different products like meat, fish, chicken, Welschkorn, yams , sweet potatoes, bananas, plantains and local maize beer. European food and drink is not much more expensive than that produced locally. It is the policy to reduce consumption of European commodities, but this is not altogether possible, since sometimes local foods are unobtainable, and the mission is not able to store foods for long periods. The European foodstuffs which are most essential to the mission are: rice, sugar, flour, oil, butter. Red wine is being drunk less, but some Rhinewine is needed for sickness. Beer is very valuable as a drink for journeys and other unusual exertions. Tho’ even so, the merchants are selling the cheapest sugar at double the price they pay for it in England. He reckons the support of a pupil costs Fr. 12; much of the year he has to pay for water (this is in Christiansborg). Firewood costs Fr. 180 per year.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: July 1852 Proper date: July 1852 Description An account of the resource Comments on the celebrations when British rule was consolidated – a gathering of the important chiefs in Christiansborg. The King from Kibi was the most noble of them, and the richest the King of Akim (this and other material from Zimmermann on the new regime and its relation to the traditional states is to be found in Heidenbote 1853, pp 43ff.). His detachment marched into Osu in good order with their flags…preceded by drumers, followed by a man striking a hollow iron cup, followed by a detachment of soldiers, then a number of people carrying chests, footstools etc., then followed a high official in a palanquin ahead by an umbrella, then came the centre of the procession – surrounded by soldiers, the kings servants, among whom were the crier, the official who drove away the flies; with his horse-hair […] an adjutant carrying a curved sword with a golden hilt and at last the king himself high in his palanquin, shaded by two umbrellas, and the stool before him, with two great bells hanging from it. Behind him came huge 5' drums, hung with skulls (though these were covered up with cloth). All very well turned out, the drummers varying their tone between strong and weak strokes a greet deal. They marched to the Fort, saluted the Governor with a volley in which they must have spent 16-20 pounds of powder. The men responsible for each part of the King of Akim’s retinue each rode on another man, so that they could see well, end in the crowd it looked as if they were on horse backs. The king of Akim has strict control over his people....In state he sits on his stool, with two lines in front of him made up of his slaves, his weapon-carriers, and his small sons - anyone approaching him has to walk between these lines. Around him in the open air was drumming and dancing. The missionaries visit him, and gave him presents of an English bible with gold letters on the binding, an English spade and a hatchet. He received them in a friendly way, and attended a service once, when he was surprised to find the chapel packed full, and the service is carried on in two vernaculars. His attendants often came to services also, and other Akim people in Christiansborg. He had been to a Wesleyan school himself, and is very keen to have his sons (with Süss) learn English. He is still pressing for a mission station in his territory and Zimmermann comments that while missionaries retained his favour they would be very well protected, since he maintains discipline and order and is loved and respected by his people. NB: The Akim contingent at the ceremony was outnumbered by that from Akwapim, all the wing chiefs came from that state with their escorts, and altogether cannot have numbered less than 4500. In reporting on farming and gardening, he says that the missionaries have much enthusiasm for this....

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 01.01.1853 Proper date: 01.01.1853 Description An account of the resource First part is a Ga traditional account of the McCarthy war - Zimmermann says in the same sentence that he had it from the mouth of an elder (not specified) and implies that it is a popular history. It is certainly fairly crude. The cause is given as a quarrel between an Asante merchant and a woman selling salt fish in Cape Coast....she refusing to bargain with him and when he threatened to take her to Kumasi by force asking whether the Asantehene wanted buy salt fish....The point of all this is explained in an aside that at that time the Asantes had authority over the Gua (Oguaa) and Ga people. The women fled to the fort the man returned to Kumasi where Osei imprisoned him and executed him, having asked him why he had not got himself executed on Oguaa rather than returning home with shame. The account of the diplomacy and war has nothing very remarkable about it...the warning is given to McCarthy by an old woman, and the fante play no glamorous role, shouting to each other when the powder runs out and thus betraying the situation to the Asantes. There is a paragraph's account of a Christiansborg church member who believed himself poisoned….an Ayigbe ex-slave named Aioo who had evidently worked on the farms near Christiansborg, because for a time he fled back to his old slave companions: His particular fears are explained it as being connected with the fact that he had been ‘given’ to a fetish, hence his name. One of the missionaries found him no mention being made of a long journey being involved - also he is said to have been simply on one of the “Plantagen”.

Description An account of the resource In the section on preaching journeys a visit to Legon is mentioned (spelt this time Lego). The people had agreed to give up their fetish practices, to keep Sunday holy, listen to the Bible being read regularly. However, Stanger doubted the seriousness of all this and asked the pupil-teacher who was with him whether they would do all this...he said they would not. But says Stanger there are a few who are quite sincere. There are 5 1/2 pages of biographies of people who have been baptised, including 10 adult and adolescent men, and 2 adult/adol, women. The men include two Volta region slaves, one from Nyemfe in Crepe, the other Aiku (see the Zimmermann’s report No. 157) whose birthplace is given as Akutafe in Crepe. Both are youngish (25 and 17 years: old respectively)...they seem to have come into the mission's employment in the normal course of events as far as they were concerned being already working in the Accra area. Another man is a slave from Larte working for a Labadi master in the Labadi farm village of Oesirehantang. Also a shortish paragraph on the 8 boys confirmed in the second half of 1853.

Another visit to Lego - obviously in the Legon area, since it is described as the first farming village of any significance after leaving Osu. It has about 80 inhabitants. He took most of his pupils, and sent 4 in 2 groups of 2 to visit two small unnamed villages nearby. Stanger’s main objective was a family already known to the mission for several years, who have shown signs of wanting to be baptised. Both father and son have only one wife, and there are a lot of children – standing together they look like a row of organ pipes. The wives are interested too - but it all depends on the advice of the grandfather…later the whole village was visited, and gathered to listen to sermons by Stanger and two of his pupils under a large tree. A second visit en passant for the other plantation village is described, in which Stanger and his party spent the night in Legon. They held an evening service, and a conversation went on in one of the houses with Stanger and his pupils until midnight. On the way back to Osu they passed through Legon again, where his pupils were given permission by the inhabitants to destroy a Musu. A third visit is made to Legon (all within the space of eight weeks), again en route for the other plantation villages, this time especially Osirenantang where there were two candidates for baptism. This time Stanger says he visited two villages, both called Legon, and preached in both (He reports the application by a fetish priest from the plantation villages (not specified) for baptism - 17th December). Attached is a list of the members of the Osu station, again subdivided by sex and negro/mulatto, with some info on occupation.

On the way back to Osu passed through Legon, and was impressed by the wholehearted welcome of the people. He interprets Legon as meaning 'wide hill' with no further comment. Sang has asked to be baptised along with his wife and 11 children. (He is the chief of the village). The street fetish which the people allowed Stanger's pupils to destroy has stayed destroyed.... Unfortunately Sang is proving, somewhat lukewarm. On this journey , Zimmermann and his family stayed 8 days in Abokobi, working in the surrounding villages. Both in this report and in Stanger’s (No. 167), it appears that a campaign has been opened to get fetishes destroyed as a preparation for more directly encouraging people to become catechumens.
