Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 15.01.1874 Proper date: 15.01.1874 Description An account of the resource In the station statistics it appears that Eisenschmid has returned to Kibi in mid-1873 to replace Lodholz, troubled by persistent severe illness. Haas is already a widow. Eisenschmid too suffered an extremely severe attack of illness in November - at the time of writing the report there was no missionary at Kibi. The catechists on the station are William Adow and William Obeng - both unmarried. Teacher Ako is still on the staff. The number of members of the community has remained stable in the course of the year at 45. 24 of these are communicants, 7 non-communicants, there are 14 children. 8 people are catechumens, and there are 23 boys in the boarding school. Despite the stationary numbers, 7 people were baptised, 3 died, and 7 moved away - only 3 Christians moved to Kibi to make up this loss. Services in the Kibi church are attended by heathens and excluded Christians. Two Christian young men are betrothed to two of the girls working as servants for the missionaries. The opposition to the school is not so serious – some pupils have been voluntarily sent by their families. 2 of the Christians are capable carpenters. Some of the others are involved in trade to a certain extent. The missionaries travelled 22 days in the year (on preaching tours), the catechists 73. People were visited in their houses in Kibi proper - this brought many people to the services. On the whole the elders and the Okyenhene had a very pleasant attitude to the missionaries during the year. Two of the catechumen are young men, and have been threatened by their fellows, but after Eisenschmid had spoken to the two head men they were given peace.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 19.01.1874 Proper date: 19.01.1874 Description An account of the resource The number of the Christian community has increased from 5 to 15, communicants from 4 to 8, children from 2 to 7. There are 4 non-communicants in the community at the end of 1873, 5 catechumens, and 10 heathen school pupils. Asante himself has been having to work on the cleaning of the station from weeds. That the Kukurantumi people were thinking of resettling themselves in Asante as a result of their lost land ease is false. They had thought of resettling themselves further into the interior of Akim, in the area from which they originally came, but decided in the end that even though they had lost land, they were well enough off where they were. He undertook 23 days' preaching journeys in the course of the year. During the year he has acted as host to various officers of Captain Glover's forces travelling in Akim. The school population is still unstable - children are taken away when their parents want to pawn them. Explaining in detail the movement of numbers in the community, Asante explains that there has been no gain from the heathen. The increase is due to the teacher married Mose Badu, the strongest Christian in Kukurantumi, has at last succeeded in finding a Christian wife - Magdalena, daughter of Rosina Osso, once freed by the Basel Mission Slave Emancipation Commission. An orphan boy who had to leave the Haas family when Mrs Haas died and has come to live in the Badu family. There are four excluded Christians under test in prospect of re-acceptance. The second marriage in the community is that of old Jacob, a slave of the Kukurantumihenes, who is married to another elderly slave who has recently asked to be accepted as a catechumen. Asante too regrets that the members of this congregation have no particular economically useful skill and that farming is not the answer so far from the coast.

However, there is also a definite movement among potential pupils to find their own way to school and set aside the hindrances imposed by the elders. In the last quarter they had received boys from Apapam, Date-Ntem, Abomosu, Kwaben, 7 in number, all fleeing to them without permission. They cannot on the station guarantee to keep such boys against all the manouevres of their families, and they have a rule never to buy such a boy free or out of a debt. But they themselves insist on repayment of the money spent on feeding such pupils if the attempt is made eventually to take them away, and this acts as a deterrent. They depend on the boys' own determination to stay, of course, and of this seven 2 have run away again, and the others have needed to be warned and encouraged.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 14.04.1873 Proper date: 14.04.1873 Description An account of the resource The report is a series of hostile comments on Plans in European Missionary periodicals for an immediate mission to Kumasi. These are that in an independent Asante the hindrances the missionaries suffer from the chiefs subordinate to the English Protectorate will be magnified many times: that every year at the great yam festival it is again resolved never to become political subordinate, especially to the British (Missionary Buhl remarks in a subscript that the priest of the La fetish swears vengeance on the British every year at his great festival too). In fact, if any promise were forthcoming concerning protection for missionaries from the Asantehene it could hardly be kept. Asante suggests an alternative missionary strategy of working in in the Twi districts south of the Asante border - Asin, Denkyira, Wassaw. He also corrects the spelling - you should really write 'Asante’ for 'Ashanti' - the 'sh' is a British insertion.

Of the 9 catechumens at end 1872 he had just baptised 5 girls. Furthermore 7 young men of Dade-Ntem have registered as catechumen, and one from Tete, so that there are 12 catechumen undergoing instructions in the difficult context of people being frequently required to join units of armed men involved in the war. Several Akims newly escaped from Asante captivity report a butchering of Akim prisoners in Asante. Also that Ramseyer is to be seen preaching in the streets and holding school in Kumasi.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 29.04.1873 Proper date: 29.04.1873 Description An account of the resource Concerning the report that the imprisoned missionaries have been executed. Asante is sure that this report is wrong, having other information from fairly sure sources, namely Akims returning from an escape from Asante captivity. They had gone to Kwahu to trade, in a party which included 3 Christians from Aburi (Widman inserted in the margin that they had gone to trade in slaves). They were captured when the Asante-Fante war broke out and taken to Kumasi. There they were taken before Karikari who consigned the Aburi Christians to the care of Ramseyer. This he heard not directly from one of the Akims, but from a man who had recently heard it at first hand. Asante also considers that if anyone will hear news about the missionaries, it would be someone in Akim. There is still secret traffic going on between the two nations and notable news leaks through with this sort of contact. For example the Begoros recently heard from Kwahus who had come there to trade that 400 Asantes had gone towards Krobo to purchase munitions, and had sent a party out in turn to attempt to capture them. In any case the Asantes believe that it was killing Sir Charles McCarthy which has brought such trouble upon them - and they rarely or never kill anyone of significance in the belief that they represent a useful bargaining point in peace negotiations.

With the installation of Catechist William Adow as 'housefather' tensions developed between him and the pupils - there had been one small strike by all the pupils, and later they heard from the Okyenhene that there was a plan among the pupils to stay away from the school at the end of the mid-year holidays. The missionary judgement on all this is not clear - on the one hand they had been harsh and punished people severely, but on the other some of his strictness was well-directed, e.g. the ruling that even outside lesson time pupils were not to go into Kibi town without permission. At the end of the school year (late June) they had 18 pupils - of the new arrivals at the beginning of the year only 2 remained, and several boys had run away. There is also a short report of Haas' visit to Begoro. It was quite unsuccessful in terms of recruitment of pupils for the school. The main problem - the chief Finin was the whole time not sober and quite incapable of dealing with them. Since their return they learn that Finin was destooled, and the Begoro people wanted to bring him before the Okyenhene's court. He however fled to the coast at dead of night, still drunk Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context D-01.25.IX..9 Subject The topic of the resource [Archives catalogue]: Guides / Finding aids: Archives: D - Ghana: D-01 - Incoming correspondence from Ghana up to the outbreak of the First World War: D-01.25 - Ghana 1873: D-01.25.IX. - Kjebi and Kukurantumi Title A name given to the resource Haas' Report to Basel Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
