Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 03.02.1852 Proper date: 03.02.1852 Description An account of the resource First Journey to Akim Taken alone because Widmann unable to travel, and Dieterle sick. Project first seriously considered after Stanger had informed them that the Wesleyans had plans for entering Akim(in mid. 1851). Four days march from the last Akropong farms to Gyadam, most of the time along a broad valley. Approx. every two hours passing a hamlet in a clearing with farms, but the path seems little used, pushing through bushes etc. Gyadam a large town with many people in it, the king has a real palace (cf .Akropong where he does not). First shown into an open room behind a collonade, then taken to the King who sat on a large stool, smoking a long pipe, the gold scales at his feet. Given accomodation in the house of an elder, and given a hen and a week's supply of yams. The king visited them in the later and gave S. 3 thaler and his followers 40 'Streng’ in gold. A long conversation followed in the evening; by the time of S.'s departure, he had promised to send two boys to the school in Akropong within two weeks. Gyadam is described as being in a large plantation, with stone (available for building presumably) nearby, and good clay for earthenware and bricks. From Gyadam he went to Kibi, where his followers wanted him only to stay the night, staying in a certain house, because they particularly did not want to see the King. However, they were received on the outskirts of the town by two men and conducted to the king’s house, where S. seems to have been impreseed by the pomp. He mentions horns blowing,& drums on several occasions. On each occasion of conversation the king came to visit S,. who was again lodged with an elder. The King was keen to detain S. longer than his intended 24 hours stay, and used the discussions concerning the sending of two of his sons to the school in Akropong as a means to delay him. The King's reception was very friendly, affable, genial. Asking S. about his travels, and his diet. The King pressed for a teacher to be sent to Kibi and S. pointed out that the King'a sons would be taught to be teachers. (The King expressed a strong desire to be taught to read by S. himself). Other substantive topics of conversation were S.‘s advice to eschew rum, and the question why S. had come. 'Because I love you black people, and I had heard in my country that you were an unhappy people, with no peace, and knowing nothing about eternal life, and then I thought I would come to tell you about eternal life (das ewige Leben verkünden) so that you may receive it (empfangen) and become holy (selig) in time and eternity'. On the journey back to Akropong, S. mentions that the Akim villages supplied him with food - this is not stated as happening on the outward journey, though he left Akropong unsure whether he would be spending one or two days travelling through the Akropong farms or be going en to Akim. The journey began on Jan 19th, he left Gyadam on 24th Jan - he doesn’t give a date for his return to Akropong. (Most of this letter is printed in Heidenbote 1852 No 7, p. 53ff) In an unpublished passage at the end of the letter S. makes several points in favour of the establishment of a station of the BM at Gyadam rather than Kibi. (i) the town and the surrounding cultivable lands are far better watered. (ii) in conjunction with its suburb of Esubuya it is not much smaller than Kibi (iii) their message would have wider currency in this important commercial centre (iv) if handled cleverly the King of Gyadam would be favourable to the missionaries He also argues that they should establish the station as soon as possible. One point he makes in this connection is that Akim is three or four times bigger than Akwapim. Also it is flat country where they speak a 'zart' (soft) twi compared with the rough twi of the Akwapim mountains. Asante twi is presumably soft flat country twi too. Furthermore the Akwapims abominate (verabscheuen), the twi of the Asantes and Akims. Therefore there would be advantages in going to Gyadam and doing his language study there.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 23.03.1852 Proper date: 23.03.1852 Description An account of the resource Second journey to Akim Accompanied by three pupils Jonathan, Paul, Wilhelm and a number of carriers. Setting out 10 Feb. In five hours had reached the last Akropong farming village Hawanti, having passed through Amamprobi (described as the farming village of the Häuptling – King of Akropong). Metaase, Bünase, Apenkwa and Obum, Overnight at Hawanti, next day through poor farming villages of Oponto, Tumase, Koforedua, Engkwankwadua, Amosaw, Osucheng, spending the night in the latter. The trees of the Akim forest are straighter and taller than those an the Akwapim hills - they have seen trees of 6-9' daimeter, with 80-100' trunkes below the branches. On Feb 12th after two hours they came to Kukurantumi the first Akim village. Neat and clean, with fairly wide main street, the house walls made up of sticks, roffed with banana or palm leaf thatching, the outside daubed with white clay, the inside with red. From there passed through Maase, Jaginaseng, Boate where they spent the night. Next day through Tete, Pando, and into Kibi. On this day they passed many gold diggings, some with steps out into the sides for entry, some with ropes made of creepers. The writers describe the traditional routine of welcome and conversation in Kibi through the linguist in a way which Süess (Letter No 44, 1852) does not. S. definitely gives the impression of a tete-à- tete with the king. On their first introduction to the King in Kibi they describe him as seated with his council in a circle under a tree, the aseembly making them feel Ehrfurcht – respectful awe. The king was sitting on a brass studded stool, with a bell at each side of it, under a large coloured umbrella....on his right the linguist, right in front of him several of his young sons. Widmann and Mader were lodged in a little house fitted out with some european furniture which belonged to.a man who had served one of the European merchants on the coast. His real attitude to them of course they regard as unknown as yet. But he gave a very friendly impression with his many valuable gifts (vielen u. kostbar), and bis many (häufigen) visits and in his requests for a BM station in Kibi. 17th Feb they continued to Gyadam, which they describe as bigger than Kibi (which they considered about the size of Akropong, except that at any time there would be more people in Kibi because they do not seem to go out to their farms like the Akropong people) and giving a more welcoming impression to the visitor, because it has a wider belt of cultivated land around it (Kibi they describe as having only a band of about 20-30 paces between its outer houses and the forest). They stayed there till the 19th, and then returned to Akropong in 2 days. As for Akim as a whole, they say that their description of Kukurantumi is characteristic of the towns and vilIages, and that the land earns its living by gold-mining, the arts of cultivation are not much developed. Gold digging they describe as hard work in which the whole family has its part to play, and this ‘appears to exercise a good influence over their sociaI and economic set-up'. The above summary was made from the text in Heidenbote 1852, No. 11, pp 90-92. This appears to have been edited from the manuscript, mainly stylistically, tho’ the manuscript is difficult to read. The material which is marked as not having been printed on the manuscript is a long passage near the end, concerned with the advisability of setting up a mission station in Akim, and if so whether it should be at Gyadam or Kibi. The main point contra is transport and travel difficulty in the rainy season. The arguments for and against each station follow the material already abstracted on the whole, though the following are reemphasised or new points of note: (i) pro Gyadam; Widmann and Mader were obviously impressed by the greater agricultural activity in Gyadam vis-à-vis Kibi (ii) pro and contra Gyadam the town itself is 1/3 bigger than Kibi and its villages are nearer (also fewer and close for defence?) than the Kibi villages (though this is also used as an argument to show how much more influential station at Kibi would be. NB Atta’s first village on the road from Gyadam is only two hours away). (iii) Auyeman at Gyadam does what the white ‚governors’ wants him to. (pro Gyadam) (iv) (contra Gyadam) these people are not real Akims, nor is their king a real Akim prince perhaps their arrival and settlement wes caused by the last Asante war. (v) (contra Kibi) Kibi being lower lying might prove less healthy. (vi) (pro at least a school at Kibi) since the BM may be in competition with the Wesleyans in this area, to create good realtions with the most important and powerful king it would be advisable to place at least a school in Kibi. Atta seems indeed to be interested in the influence of the mission (presumably this referes to the influence of education: the phrase is used tout court with no indication of its full significance).

She had been a slave for 11 years among the Yoruba and knew Abeokuta well, then had been sold into Asante from where she had come to Abiru. She seemed to be a Mohammeden - was able to speak with her in broken Arabic. She had come bringing presents to Mrs Widmann,because she (Mrs W.) had been in europe for so long. Widmann makes a point of mentioning the scar which she had on her ehoulder. He records no positive reaction of his to her current slavery.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 12.05.1852 Proper date: 12.05.1852 Description An account of the resource The first topic discussed was the opinion of the conference on the question posed by the comitee in Basel should Aburi be opened as a station for European Missionaries, or should another station be contemplated at one day’s journey (from Akropong or the coast not specified). Opposition to Aburi being reopened: and the opinion of the meeting evidently swung towards opening a station in Akim, in a spite of the costs involved. No very strong opinion was voiced in favour of either Kibi or Gyadam. but opinion seems to heve been fairly unanimously in favour of Kibi. Süss saying cannot make up his mind. Ln Widmann’s summing up one or two new points emerge. In Kibi he and Mader had been shown land on which they could settle which had earlier belonged to an Ashanti prince Kamene Boateng. Widmann describes him as having been driven out of Asante not very long ago; on his death the Asantehene asked that his people should be sent back to him. (There is also in this conference minute a one page discussion of the need for more horses for the Ga area mission). (And a discussion of further developing the Accra Plains work carried on apparently independently of the Akim question, and mainly consisting of a discussion of the strength of the staff at Christiansborg).
