Much is printed in the Heidenbote 1870, pp49-50, p78, p121ff. Other points in the manuscript include: The Begorohene had sent a party of men with the hunter who Asante had commissioned to take the message to Kumasi. The messenger was able to give some information on the prisoners – e.g. that they were not in Kumasi itself, but in a village about as far away as Akropong is from Mampong Akw. The man was able to say this as he had spent a whole year in Abiri. He 'also gave news on the war, which had been going badly for the Asantes - many losses and nothing much obtained. The army was now on its return journey in an area on the upper Volta called Pae, and from there they would return via Sohae to Akoroso. Many salt and tobacco merchants had come with Asante’s messenger - they were buying a quantity of salt which cost 1/- on the coast for 2 dollars and selling it again for 9-10 dollars. The business is arranged in such a way that only two Kwahus who have a secret connection with the Begorohene are allowed into the town – and they have to remain in concealment. The rest stay in the forest, while these two do business for them.

There was scarcely any road from Kukurantumi to Kibi. He was accompanied to Kibi by two 'Constables' who had a present for the king from the Governor, and a letter with the requests (a) to allow the Basel Mission to send messengers into Asante from Begoro (b) to mobilise his army in order to assist in hindering the Asante withdrawal from Ayigbe. The former point was not conceded in any straightforward way. The Okyenhene asked Eisenschmid why the Basel Mission wanted to make connections with Asante through Begoro, when everyone knew the road to Asante went through Obomosu? And he was very concerned about the salt trade passing through Begoro. He in fact insisted that only one request could be adhered to at one time - and insisted on writing to the Governor in these terms before allowing Schrenk and Eisenschmid to travel to Begoro. His interpreter in this session was one Carl Quist, known to the missionaries, who had apparently stolen from Kromer.

Part is also to be found in Heidenbote 1870 p121f. Additional material: The Begoro people, having asked Schrenk and Eisenschmid's advice as to what to do about the sale of salt, ad an oath sworn that only salt actually in the town should be sold. In fact this was only a front – Schrenk and Eisenschmid saw with their own eyes that salt was being brought into the town from all sides. Schrenk’s opinion is that the Begoro-Kwahu route was only a hunter's route previously. Very 1ittle salt was probably smuggled along it. On the other hand, though Schrenk thought the trade by the Begoro people was wicked, he was prepared to act in terms of getting the Asantehene goods worth the 216 dollars which the chief was supposed to have had with him but which he then said he had left in Kwahu. He broke off carrying through this plan when they received news from Odumase of the battle in which Dompre was wounded. Obviously they could not carry on trade with a people who were fighting the Gas. The Asiakwa chief was asked by the Begoro chief to act as his mediator in Kibi. The information about the 218 dollars fine levied on Begoro by Kibi came to Schrenk from Kwabi.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 03.01.1871 Proper date: 03.01.1871 Description An account of the resource In the course of the year Missionary Haas had joined the station. There were 34 members of the community at the end of 1870 (there had been 37 the previous year), 17 communicants (21 before), and 6 catechumens. There were 15 pupils in the boarding school, and 5 day-pupils. In Kukurantumi the number in the community had increased from 11 to 13, 5 of them communicants. Certain minor adjustments had been made to the boundaries of the mission lands and longstanding quarrels had thus been ended. A special building for the Boarding School was being put up, but this was hindered by the fact that the Okyenhene's opposition to the missionaries had recently been expressed in a law charging them 32 dollars for every tree they cut down – and since one tree often only yields 1000 shingles, this is a serious hindrance. It appears there was a missionary presence in Begoro for quite a long time. Lodholz travelled there in June (his other major journey was to Akanteng in West Akim) Kwabi was there for most of the time from January to August. In the community, besides the absolute decrease in numbers there were 6 members excluded from the Communion service. 2 were excluded from the community on account of misdeeds, one man moved away and is now attending the Wesleyan church in Anomabu. 2 boys from the Kibi school entered Middle School in Akropong. There were 6 baptisms, but none of adults. Morning and evening prayers were attended only without enthusiasm by a number of members. The 2 excluded from the community were a youth and girl who had committed adultery, the girl being one of those under Mrs Kromer - from the same group two girls left being unwilling to live under regular discipline, and are among the numbers of those excluded from communicating. The community is weakened by the fact that there is no regular source, of income for the members - it would be better if there were, for example, a locksmith's centre where they could be employed. Kukurantumi - the land case is still unsettled, and likely to remain so since the man who originally sold the land to the Akwapims is now dead. The congregation, and the town, are anxious about having their catechist removed - Lodholz thinks, however, it is too late for them to repine, now important developments in the community have occurred in the year. Two schoolboys, one of whom had given up the Kibi school, the other having been expelled from Akropong and refused the place of carpenters' apprentice which Missionary Bellon found for him, had returned to Kukurantumi but were very weak in their adherence. One of the two people excluded in the previous year had returned, having both confessed the sin of marrying a heathen, and having given the marriage up. The other showed no signs of applying for re-acceptance. The pupils in the Boarding School had declined from c25 to 13-15, partly due to the natural process of pupils reaching the end of their course, partly because a few had it left of their own free will, partly because in Kibi the chief and elders had not fulfilled a promise to send more boys, while beyond Kibi the town was thought of as a hungry community. One explanation for the small number of the increase in Kibi is the fact that there is an agreement among the chief and elders that should a slave or pawn announce himself for baptism, he should be sold away from Kibi. This accounts for the fact that an old man from Piedu’s household, though had been a close friend of Abraham Boama, though he applied for baptismal instruction, has not completed it. Towns in Akim visited by preachers in the year - Apapam, Date-Ntem, Apedya, Tete, Asiakwa, Tafo, Siim, Annyinasen, Mase. In Tafo Kwabi writes that the fetish has prohibited his preaching there any more on the grounds that if this is not done the snails will not return. In conclusion he characterises their work as the seed-time in Akim, whose fruits will be shown in future generations. The elders of Akim show indifference or downright hostility to mission work at the moment.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: October 1870 Proper date: October 1870 Description An account of the resource Writes of the many palavers between the missionaries and the Okyenhene and the people of Kibi concerning Asante's stay in Begoro. These interrupted his activities in repairing the mission buildings. The report also involves some discussion of Mohammedan influences, sources not quoted, presumably Mohammedans with whom Kromer had spoken. There is a town Yenni 10 days North-East of Kumasi whose inhabitants outnumber the combined population of Akims and Akwapims. It is a Mohammedan town, and for a long distance around it no other people live. About 50 years before, the Asantes, with their guns, had conquered the town, and made it liable to pay tribute - 1000 dollars and 500 slaves. It is as a result of this that Mohammedans are to be found in Asante and to the south. They are welcomed because of their reputation as providers of strong medicine, and they can earn a living in these terms. Kromer classifies such people into two groups - those who effectively prosper by fetish - the provision of amulets. These are usually illiterate, and cannot read Arabic. The others are well educated and literate in Arabic. People of the first type once came to Gyadam, people of the second type were currently in Kibi. The present group in Kibi had been in Fante for 5 years, and had got themselves a great reputation (Kromer comments that they were able to cross frontiers even at time of war, and thus had gone to Fante when they did). They sent to Kibi with the news that they could turn earth to gold, were invited to visit the Okyenhene and were received in a magnificent procession with guns firing etc. Their present to the Okyenhene was a fine embroidered robe. They have not clashed with the Christians, though they have entry everywhere In Kibi, including with the Okyenhene who has made the Chief Mohammedan one of his advisors with a seat on the council. There is a short subscript by Mader dated 19 October 1870 who remarks that there are Mohammedans settled in British Accra, who have their own sort of school, and visit Akwapim singly.

The Basel letter seems to have been rather critical of them on this account, and the minutes (Lodholz’ opinion) are taken up with a comparison of the position of the missionaries' position with the sacrifices of the German soldiers in the Franco-Prussian war. Lodholz’ reaction is not especially enthusiastic about the war. He speaks about sacrifices for the Fatherland, but equally reckons that their loneliness, disappointments (citing his earlier quarterly reports for the year) and travelling problems are the equal of the sacrifices of the German army.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 05.01.1871 Proper date: 05.01.1871 Description An account of the resource An annex to his Annual Report (see No 18), replacing his reports for the third and fourth quarter of 1870. Partly a description of the death of Abraham Boama – very peaceful and faithful, on the mission station (Lodholz had to ask permission of his master to bring him there during his last days.). He quotes a late speech of his - 'You (Lodholz) must bury me, and pray over my grave. I don't want to be buried by the heathen, nor placed in their cemetery. You must make me a coffin, and when you put me in it you must not smear me with white earth like the heathen do for purification, nor must you wrap my body in a cloth but in a shroud.' He writes also about William Dapa, ex-servant and washerman of Eisenschmid’s, whom he had visited through two severe illnesses. In his first Lodholz reckoned he could already see the mark of faith in him - especially in that he learned to suffer his illness patiently, and with his eyes on the Lord. Also he became franker and franker in his dealings with himself. After his illness he showed the change in him in practical ways - paid off his few debts, made his own tools and set out to earn his living fully as a carpenter. In his second illness he spoke even more frankly to Lodholz, giving him an insight into Akim psychology and concepts he had not had before confessing earlier sins and unfaithfulness, and talking to him about the true state of people in the community and in Kibi itself. He told Lodholz in detail how at the time of the last Odwira a man had been sacrificed by the Okyehhene and his blood sprinkled on the drums and other musical instruments. His history shows just how, when the Holy Spirit really begins to work in the hearts of the African members of the community, it improves their relations with the missionaries. He also describes the conclusion of peace between the ‘eastern Akims' and the ‘western Akims' who for the first time he calls Kotokuers, and reports that they got their name from their carrying of the Asantehene's pocket - kotoku. The intermediary was Ferguson, who conveyed to the king the Governments's displeasure at the constant rumours of another war between Kibi and the ex-Gyadam people. (Lodholz remarks that these were founded at least on the fadt that in the last year and in 1870 the Okyenhene had expressed his hatred for his uncle's enemies, and had. talked about fighting them once more). The meeting to arrange the peace took place at Akanten. It was stormy – the Kokotus wanted to lay down conditions unacceptable to the Kibi ambassadors, for example that a certain head of an ex-Gyadam family, who had sworn fetish to serve the old king Ata and had been given the right to settle in east Akim, should be returned to Kotoku. This turned out to be a point which the ambassadors were insisting on, not Efua (Kotokuhene), and it was eventually dropped. In the ceremony of making the peace Ferguson's interpreter took the Kotoku fetish Kyere to the 5 Kibi ambassadors to drink, it being fanned by a boy with an elephant's tail. It was contained in a brandy bottle carried in a small brass pan, and carried in complete silence with great reverence shown on the faces of the onlookers. The feta was a dirty white liquid. Ferguson's interpreter (a heathen) had taken Dyon leaves, and formed them into a sort of cup in the first three fingers of his right hand. He then poured out some of the drink, set the toes of his left foot over the toes of the left foot of the individual who was to drink, and made a speech in which he stressed that if the drinker was intent on treachery, the fetish should kill him. After this he poured from the drink in his hand three times into the mouth of the man making the oath, poured the rest ever his head. At this the Ambassador leaned to one side, shuddered and spat three times. The Kotokus had to drink Wankobabi, this fetish being in a beer bottle, and shaded by three boys with fresh-cut palm branches. It is water from a stream that flows into the Berem 1 1/2 hours North-East of Kibi. After this the remainder of the fetish was poured out by its owners on the road leading to the other's country. While this was going on the horn players sang the praises of the fetish. Following this ceremony invitations were exchanged by ambassadors who came to the two capitals to congratulate the kings at the time of their yearly festivals. The two Kotoku ambassadors knew Kromer, and he also recognised them. The Ferguson mission was also concerned with an attempt to get the Kibi people to hand over their Asante prisoners to the English Government at Cape Coast in order to facilitate a general exchange. The Akims would only give up one young man, however, on the grounds that they wanted to see their own prisoners first.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 06.05.1871 Proper date: 06.05.1871 Description An account of the resource Of the 13 new pupils in the boarding school 3 were from Akwapim, 2 were pupils who had been in the school previously, 2 had come to the school in the face of family opposition. In February he had made a visit to Begoro to recruit pupils for the school. All the villages on the Kibi side were deserted because people were at the gold-diggings, and all the Begoro villages were deserted because the people had been called to Begoro in connection with a dispute between chief and elders over the excessive drinking of the former. He had to wait 3 days to get a hearing in these circumstances, at the end of which, after excited discussion, it was decided that the chief would be deposed if he took to drink again. When Haas spoke their wish to have boys for the school, the people were not willing to give them. He got only two, hearing later that many boys were only prevented by force from following them. In Asiakwa on the return journey they met the chief, who asked him to return in one month. But on that second visit there were no pupils to be had. From the point of view of relations with the chief elders and people, he does not feel Begoro is very suitable for a missionary station - they seemed interested in nothing but the money they could gain from the presence of a European. In connection with a second station, Haas warmly recommends a high priority for a girls' boarding school - those of his boys who do not go to the Akropong Middle School are lost to the community when the time comes for them to marry. In reporting on his health he remarks that it has been good, except when he was quite shattered by the murder of a man in the town after long tortures. Reporting further on recruitment of pupils, he has been given one by the chief of Kwaben, which means yet another Kwaben boy - one is already in Akropong, another had to be expelled for loose behaviour, said one has already completed several years in the Kibi boarding school. (The Begorohene who was in difficulties with his subjects was Fining).

Some had worked at Ho for the Bremen missionaries, and felt very dependent on mission work, and were sorry when the work at Kibi came to an end and they had to lose their jobs.
