Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 02.02.1864 Proper date: 02.02.1864 Description An account of the resource From the Basel Mission's point of view Anum is the best cotton market in the upper Volta region. Though Boso market gets a lot of cotton, the amounts are in fact less than what comes to Anum, and Boso is further from the river. Uncleansed cotton can just as easily be carried to Anum as sold in Boso, and much cotton does indeed come through Boso to Anum already. It would not be advisable to propose Pekyi as a Basel Mission station, partly because it is an old Bremen station. There must be a lot of cotton in Pekyi market, judging by the fine cotton farms which the Commission (i.e. the Mission's exploratory party) passed en route from Boso to Pekyi. Pekyi must be at least 4 1/2 hours from the river. Advises that, for thus the future, the best road from Anum to the river would be to the place from which you cross to Pese. This road would have to be prepared by taking a different line it could avoid having to pay the fetish tolls being levied now. The more frequently used road goes to the small Anum village of Dodi, but this has the disadvantage that it crosses a steep-sided hill. There is another way to the river from Anum - via Owlutoi (probably Ofletoi) to Asadsale (Asutscharee). It crosses no hills, and is important when the Akwamus block the river below Pese, but it is 14 hours long. It is also only practicable in its low—lying parts in the dry season. There are already small cotton-cleaning machines in Anum and Pekyi. Larger cleaning-machines, and balers, could be taken to Anum (a) When the water level on the Volta is higher than in the Harmattan (b) When the road to Anum from the Pese crossing has been made. Once the machines are in Anum it will probably become the best market for cotton, and therefore the best place for the residence of the Agent of the Handelsgesellschaft. Anum would also be the best place for a mission station. It is the healthiest town in the district, lying high, but not so high as to be impracticable. Admittedly it is a little lower than Akropong (probably - he had no barometer with him), and the proximity of the river would make for greater humidity in the wet season. However, in this district the bush is kept down by the annual practice of burning the high grasses. Anum lies at the end of the district inhabited by the East-Volta Kyerepong people, but in all probability the population would be drawn towards a trading centre on or near the river. He visited the Kyerepong towns of Nkrakubew, Kwasitia, Anum, Toseng, Boso and Dodi. Together the population of these must number 10,000 to 12,000. But Anum contains #4,000 of these. Boso is the political capital - the chiefs of Boso and Anum are sons of the same father. Boso has a smaller population than Anum — c2,500. The character of this people pleased him. They are capable of learning, and keen to do so. They have a mind for industry and trading, are true to their religious traditions, and place a great deal of trust in the external power of their fetishes. They are a religious people, thus. In a conversation with the 'King' (presumably the chief of Anum) Strömberg asked what he had done to prepare to meet the threats of the Asantes, and he replied that they had made offering to the fetishes. Strömberg then told him he believed that fetishes were nothing, and could not help anyone, and the chief replied 'You just I teach us, and we will do what you say'. Certainly the people thronged around whenever the missionaries preached. And they all understood them, since they all understand Twi and speak it themselves. It would be good also to use Anum as a base for preaching among the Akwamus. This Twi—speaking tribe is shrinking in number, faced with severe problems and morally in decay. In comparison the Anums are morally increasing in stature. (He writes a final paragraph arguing against siting a new station on a hill which stands near the Volta between Dodi and the Pese crossing. One reason worth nothing: one of the most important Anum fetishes is located on this hill, and it would involve a lot of difficulty securing permission to settle there.)

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 20.02.1864 Proper date: 20.02.1864 Description An account of the resource Describes the route he followed (not all the party went this way) – Dauromadam - Ogoli (1 hour), then North East via Tyampong and Ananse to the R. Labo, to Awlotoi (6-7 hours from Dauromadam). At Awlotoi Zimmrmann’s party met Strömberg and Mader who had taken a route from Asadsohale. Awlotoi — Nkwakubew - Kwasitia - Anum (5-6 hours). Anum — Dodi (1 1/2 hrs). Downstream on the Volta to Awurahai, then past the mouths of the Afram and Apasa to Pese. From Pese to Anum. Anum - Toseng - Boso (2 1/2 hours) - the 7 Pekyi towns (notably Blengo, the capital) (2—2 1/2 hours, route crossing a hill with many cotton farms) - Anum (2 hours). Of the rapids on the Volta, only those at Senkyi are difficult. Both banks of the Volta are under Akwamu control between Dauromadam and Dodi. Most Akwamu villages are on the right (east) bank, or on islands. There are only a few on the on left bank. The Akwamu capital is surrounded by hills. The Accra plains are 20 hours ‘deep’ (North-South) at the Volta. There are some deep valleys, fertile and well-peopled sides, but on the whole the plains are empty grass, poorly supplied with water. They produce building wood from fan-palms, wild indigo, and wild shes—butter. From Asadsohale to Ada both banks of the Volta are occupied by Ewes (Ayigbes), and the left bank is also inhabited by Ewes as far north as Ogoli. To the east two Adangem tribes live among the Ewes - the Agotime and Siagodsi peeple. These have migrated out of Adangme country. Like the Ewes these two groups grow cotton which they weave themselves still. But they could easily take their cotton down to the coast if there were a market for it. The going rate for head-loading 50lbs from Anum to Duromadam or Asadsohale is 4 – 4 1/2. Repeats the point that Pekyi is a Bremen area. Gives a population of 11,000 Kyerepongs in the Anum area, with Anum at 4,000, and Bose 3.000. The small villages on the Volta - Dodi, Asabi etc. - are of mixed population. Pekyi has political control of this Kyerepong group. Advises Basel Mission settlement both on account of trade advantages, and because of the relationship between these Kyerepongs and the people of Akwapim - it is a natural area for Basel Mission activity. An industrious farming people, cotton their main trading commodity, though indigo and shea-butter also grow wild, and are taken to market. Like their Akwapim cousins they show themselves ready for the gospel, have invited Zimmermann to work in their district in the past, and are now welcoming the Mission again, especially the young chief of Anum. To Strömberg's list of routes from Anum to the Volta adds one to Domabeng, via Nkwakubew. Cotton is brought to Anum from a circle of 2-4 hour radius. On the day he was writing 6—7 hundredweight of raw cotton had been brought in. Zimmermann's opinion is that Anum should become a main Basel Mission station, though (of Stromberg) he advises that the settlement should be on the hill near the Volta opposite Awurahai. Inter al he believes contact with Asantes will be forwarded by being so close to the river (he obviously sees Anum as potentially a stepping off point for work among Asante groups). He also believes it would be good not to be dependent on the Kyerepong people for easy contact with the Volta. Dauromadam should continue to be occupied by a native agent, as a stage in communications between Krobo and Anum.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 20.02.1864 Proper date: 20.02.1864 Description An account of the resource Spells Strömberg’s and Zimmermann's ‘Asadsohale 'Asutyaree'. Zimmerman's party arrived at Awlotoi at 1 a.m. at the beginning of their journey into Anum country. 'The Ayigbe country and its capital Pekyi' is the home of the cotton brought out of the upper Volta country: and the area from which still more cotton can be obtained. On the other hand there is no cotton market by European standards in the district. Even in Pekyi's regular market, the cotton offered for sale is in small quantities. A cotton market could be built up around the provision of cleaning machinery. Cotton is already planted, e.g. by the Kyerepongs around Anum, but it is to be hoped that the area would be increased if trade opened up. Anum is as much of a cotton market as Pekyi, with Ayigbes bringing their cotton there for sale. Mader had travelled Asutyaree to Anum. This is a route used to by-pass Akwamu in wartime. Dodi is preferable to the Volta shore opposite Pese in that the village is built on a steep slope above the river and so is secure from floods, while the shore opposite Pese is low-lying, and the permanent settlement would probably have to be some distance away from the river. Dodi's disadvantage is that it is a Kyerepong town. In times of war the Akwamus would bar the Volta to people from Dodi. He gives a rather more extended town list in the Anum district (of Kyerepong towns, at least), with populations: Boso, 3,000, much cotton growing. Dodi, 800. The two Toseng villages, 1,200—1,400. Kwasitia, 4-500. Nkwakubew, 600. Anum, 4-5000. This group lives in its villages, and doesn't spread itself around the country in farming hamlets. He does not consider, if Anum is made the Basel Mission's main mission- and trading—post, that there is any danger in the foreseeable future that a settlement on the river will surpass it as a commercial centre. His summary judgement: Anum should be the new station, and the bank opposite Pese should be made the shipment point for goods conveyed on the river.

Zimmerman (as substitute for Locher), Laissle, Strömberg (also as secretary); Meyer added in parentheses. Locher absent because of the severe illness of one of his children. Although the areas around the Pekyi district grow cotton for internal consumption, it is the Pekyi district which the missionaries identify as the real centre of cotton-production. By Pekyi District they mean Pekyi proper, the area inhabited by the Kyerepongs, and the Ho-Awudome district. The cotton packing machine cannot yet be brought to Anum firstly because of the difficulty of carrying it to Anum, and secondly because anyway cotton from Anum must still be head-loaded to the river. For the time being it should be located in Dauromadam. (The exact recommendations not noted in detail. A mission station should be set up at Anum, but there was uncertainty as to whether or not the Trading Post should be at Anum, or nearer the river. Emphasis that Dauromadam should remain as a staging post, occupied by a 'local agent'.)

Commenting on building possibilities in the Anum area, reports the local people do not use hardwoods. However, there are large numbers of fan-palms near the villages, from which the local people split beams which they call 'Coco'.

Although they are being accompanied by a local commercial assistant, they also ask for a catechist to accompany them to Anum, and another catechist to be posted to work with the local commercial head of the Dauromadam station, Daniel Young. They realise that these suggestions will not be easy to implement because of the shortage of reliable local assistants in both branches of the work.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 03.10.1864 Proper date: 03.10.1864 Description An account of the resource Report of the initial settlement of Anum by himself, Fetzer, Klaus; with Philip Kwabi as Catechist (at the same time Fetzer put in charge of Dauromadam, where Cat. Adolph Briandt is to be posted as catechist to accompany Daniel Young from Akropong). Two canoe loads sent from Dauromadam to Anum, the first with 26 loads of baggage on about 30th August, the second 12 boxes, the 3 missionaries, 3 servants and Kwabi, on 5th September. The second canoe had a crew of 5. He reports Saturday and Wednesday as the fetish days on which it is not possible to begin a canoe journey. The canoe was mostly guided through the vegetation at the edges of the river, in order to avoid the full force of the downstream current. It was more a question of being pulled upstream as paddled (i.e. by the crew pulling at the branches of trees etc. standing in the water). As a result the journey was accompanied by ants dropping into the boat, and they saw several snakes. There were dangerous moments (presumably when the current threatened to catch them under a tree-branch) - on one occasion one of their servants was thrown into the water. They also saw several snakes in the bush. But they were rewarded for their trials (the worst was that they were unable to open their umbrellas most of the time to protect themselves from the rays of the sun) by the magnificent spectacle of the thickly wooded hills through which they were travelling, and the magnificent river. On the first day they stepped in Senkyi, where they were led to the chief, and old lame man who nevertheless received great respect from the people around him. They preached there. While they were doing this the canoe was being brought up over the Senkyi rapids. They had started out from Duromadam at 10a.m. The canoe reached the river above the Senkyi rapids only at 4 p.m. It gave clear evidence of what a hard struggle the rapids had been - several broken paddles, the canoe strewn with twigs broken off the trees and bushes. Recruiting two more paddlers, they managed to persuade their crew to struggle up to the village is of Timkuku (?) before nightfall. Next morning reached Akwamu at 9 a.m. This town has changed almost out of recognition since Rottmann‘s first visit - there is hardly a building which is not in ruins, including the palace of the 'king'. Before the Akwamuhene called them, they sat on the stem of a fallen tree before the door. While they sat there the Akwamuhene's Sword-bearer hurried past to call the elders to audience: soon the Elders appeared, accompanied by the stool-bearers. Then they were called to meet the Akwamuhene in a courtyard surrounded on all four sides by open halls. After giving the Akwamuhene and the three eldest of his advisers a passable present, the objiect of their journey was stated, and they were given a friendly welcome by the chief. He assured them of his protection, and arranged to send a messenger with them to the next village to make his will in the matter known. Before they left they were asked to preach. The elders listened intently, and asked urgently for a teacher for themselves since the Wesleyans had withdrawn. ‘We promised to pass their invitation on to our brothers and fathers: meantime advising them to build a little house which a teacher could occupy.’ They could not reach their destination that day, but slept in a farming hamlet on the left bank. Only at three o'clock on the next day did they land opposite Pese. Before arriving they had preached at a village on the right bank called Mem (?). They unloaded their loads, carrying them from the shore inland to a clearing in the bush, and leaving them in the care of two of their people. Then they walked for two hours to reach Anum. Two of them have sleeping rooms 9' square by 6-7' high: the other a room 6' square. For eating they have room 11'x9', though no table. The day after their arrival there was a large public meeting at which they were greeted, and explained the purpose of their coming. They also said they hoped to purchase land. They have already decided on a hill 10 minutes away from the town and hope to complete negotiations about this in the near future. They are spending most of their time with the learning of the language, and they preach regularly in the three quarters of the town. Kwabi should open a school the Monday following the sending of this report. The plan to visit Awurahai, the market for the Asantes, situated opposite to Dodi. The 'King' (Anum or Bose) has also made them aware of three sizeable Kyerepong villages upstream.
