If he hears anything about the Juabens having bought powder and lead in Amanokrum/Akwapim he will make this known.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 13.08.1877 Proper date: 13.08.1877 Description An account of the resource The first three pages report the development of the Juaben affair. The Governor had said in his letter that in the event of trouble he could not extend protection to the Abetifi missionaries. Dieterle repeats that so far as he knows no trouble is in sight, but asks the Akwapim, Akim and Kwahu missionaries to let him know as soon as anything occurs to suggest that trouble is on the way. Dieterle had written to the Abetifi missionaries that they were not to allow themselves to be captured in any event, and that they would not be chased once they were in the protectorate. The king of Juaben is in prison at the moment because instead of settling near Koforidua as the Government wanted him to, he sent 60 ounces gold to King Taki of Accra in order to secure arms through Little Popo. On 7th August District Commissioner Reinecker came to Aburi in pursuit of the Queen Mother of Juaben escorted by an officer and 40 men. He stayed for several hours at the Mission Station in Aburi, asking Dieterle to act as an interpreter if he caught up with the lady in Mampong. It turned out, however, that she had gone on to Akropong. Message was sent to Akropong then that the Akroponghene was answerable for making sure that the Queen Mother went no further. The next day the Akroponghene brought her (Afrakuma) to the Mission House in Akropong, and invitied her up onto the veranda, whereupon her party were surrounded by soldiers. Reinecker asked the Akroponghene whether he knew that the Juabens were preparing to go to war against the Asantes, and that they had got themselves powder and lead, to which the Akroponghene replied that he did know. On Aug 9th the party returned to the Aburi Government quarters, and Dieterle saw the Queen Mother ('she is of middle age, and a looks very clever - as the District Commissioner said "She is a cunning woman"). She had been allowed her own serving women,and carriers, but the District Commissioner brought the King of Akropong and his men as far as Aburi since he feared an attempt by the Juaben people to rescue her. Dieterle adds that the imprisoned ‘King’ Asafogei is only the regent - when King Boateng died the heir was too young to be made king. Now he is imprisoned with his sister in Kumasi and this is the fundamental reason for the desire of the Juabens to fight with the Kumasis.

All is quiet there, and no-one grudges the Juabenhene his fate since he is if anything worse than the king of Kumasi. Captain Hay with 100 Hausas has come through Abetifi looking for the smuggled powder and preparing to be a position to hinder the Juabens if they move forward.

They brought back with them several horses, donkeys, and a number of cows, though unfortunately they forgot to bring a bull. Unfortunately the animals do not seem to like the air in their new homes. Asante reports that his cow is already dead, and Opoku and Kwabi report the same about several cows and donkeys. Abetifi received a horse and 2 donkeys, but sadly one of the donkeys is lost already. Perhaps they were overstrained on the journey back from Salaga.

In April the ‘Commandant’ from Accra travelled through Aburi on his trek into Akira to arrange land for the settlement of the Juabens. He seemed happy that all was well, but Dieterle’s observation is that large numbers of Juabens are carrying palm-oil for the Akwapims, hundreds pass the mission station in Aburi daily. He has spoken with many of them, and they have no intention of going to settle at Koforidua - he quotes a conversation with one man who said that the Asantes had killed 5 members of his family, and his ambition is revenge.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 28.01.1878 Proper date: 28.01.1878 Description An account of the resource Includes the point that Buck has arrived on the station, as has Cat. Anoba and pastor (deacon) Nath. Date. The numbers in the Christian community have risen from 56 to 108 (Kibi alone) with 80 communicants, 3 non-communicants, 25 children and 11 catechumens. In the boarding school are 49 pupils. Kukurantumi: Cat. Tete has been appointed to Kukurantumi as journeying preacher. The number of members in the community had increased in the year from 36 to 57, with 28 communicants, 3 non-communicants, 26 children and 19 catechumens. There were 23 pupils in the school. In Kibi several of the Christians have settled on the station or were building there. Cat, Mullings was transferred to Asiakwa, Sam Gyima ran away after playing a notable part on the side of the King in the disturbances and the subsequent court action. Anoba was posted to Akim to settle at Apedwa, but the disturbances interfered with that plan. Oware was specially assigned to preaching journeys and had spent time giving the Apapam Christians their early baptismal instruction. During the year 10 people had moved away from Kibi, and 1 had died. 6 Christians moved to Kibi, however. 4 children were born to Christian parents, and 49 people were baptised. 4 children, 39 men, and 6 women, (10 were from Apapam, at one stage there were 13 catechumens at Apapam, but 3 lapsed). Among the women is a cousin of King Ata - her Christian name was Susanna. This modest woman has already had to suffer a lot at the hands of the king, when it became known that, like her husband, she had decided to become a Christian. Ambassadors came from all over Akim (or, an embassy came from all the elders of Akim) to try to change her mind. When she refused the king took every opportunity to taunt her singing after the local custom “A princess has gone down the hill'. She wants to become a Christian and join the people who used to be slaves.’ Her reply to this was to point to Queen Victoria. They threatened to expel her from the royal family, and at the gathering of elders in September, at which Asante was so badly handled, she was formally expelled – at one time there were threats that she would lose the property she had inherited from her mother. This sort of persecution has been repeated in all the places with Christians - those at Apapam, Asiakwa, Abomosu and Asunafo have all suffered more or less. As a result, people in villages are asking urgently for land to be bought for them so that they can make separate villages. The rumour is now that since the Okyenhene has failed to drive out Asante, he will seek opportunities to poison the Christians. The religious life of the community, Asante reports that those who can read the bible regularly - and people have learned to pray as a group when the occasion warrants. In terms of speaking the truth and being industrious the life of the community is less than good. In the course of the year Asante himself travelled 21 days, his catechists etc. 169 days. Between then they preached in about 50 towns and villages. The same evening as the invasion of the station 8 men came to them from Abomesu to celebrate the Sunday with them (the riot took place on a Saturday).

He gives a biography of one of the Asante pupils. His name was Ofusuhene, his father had been the Asante representative in Kwahu, and thus taken prisoner when Kwahu declared for the English in the 1869-74 war and despatched with all the other Asante captives to Akim for onward escort to the coast. The father was one of those beheaded, however, and that the son was one of a party whom an English official tried to return to Asante, their escort only took them in fact to the last Akim town, and they were in fact secretly re-captured by the Akims. The boy was given to the chief of the border village by the Okyenhene, who in turn sold him to a rich man of the village, and Ofusuhene spent his time carrying loads to and from the coast. He then heard that there was a place in Kibi where slave boys could flee without fear of recapture.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 09.02.1878 Proper date: 09.02.1878 Description An account of the resource Describes the difficulties when as many as 20 of the pupils claim to be sick in the morning. His picture is in fact one of pupils eager for the vacation to commence and not strongly motivated to do school work. 7 boys stayed in the charge of the Kibi station staff during the vacation - one was six-fingered, 3 were ex-slaves of Juabens. After the midyear vacation a number of boys did not return - one went to the Akropong Middle School, 4 simply left on the grounds they were getting too old to go to school - two were from Asuom. One of the latter has moved to live with his brother, a goldsmith in Akropong, and is attending school there as a day boy. Date also tells the Ofusuhene story (see Aasante’ report, No 240), with some additions information: Ofusuhene's father was called Koranteng - he was one of the chief captains of Kumasi, and had a reputation as an excellent settler of dispute and cases. The older boys at least were still making their own clothes.

Preaching in Kibi is suffering from a great decrease in population due not only to the effects of the Emancipation, but also to many families moving out into farming villages. Because of this, and other circumstances, the Okyenhene has travelled to the coast to ask advice of the regime. It is much to be deplored that he is losing the respect of his people. He, on the other hand, nurses a secret hatred against the Christians, believing that their leaving his town for the mission station is a contributory factor to his difficulties.

Asante claims that neither of these is true; he does claim on the other hand that he protected the ex-slaves against their former masters (including the Okyenhene) when they fled onto the station, and indeed anywhere else - and he had done this on the instructions of Gouldsbury. He has put pressure on the servants of the Okyenhene’s family to stay in his household as long as people allowed them to, also telling them what duties were and that duties were not consistent with serving God.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 08.10.1877 Proper date: 08.10.1877 Description An account of the resource Contains information not only about the events in Kibi in September, but also a preaching journey in Akim in August. This covered 17 villages, its general direction (North West and North East of Kibi) was determined by news of places where there were converts though this was by no means all places. The three Tafo villages (Ati, Tafo and Osiem) were visited but appear not to have contained any converts. In Asunafo were 6 converts (all men and youths). Asante does not judge as zealous as those of nearby Abomesu (7 men and boys) who are leaded by one of the most notable men of the town. In Abomosu he was told by the converts that there are people in Aaiakwa and Saman who would announce themselves as catechumens if they had a teacher. Indeed in another part of the report Asante writes that the new catechist in Asiakwa has already some catechumens including an ex-fetish priest (Asante specifically writes in connection with the location of Abomosu and the normal way to Asante that the latter passes Asiakwa, Saman, Osino and Anyinam and leaves Abomosu to one side.) Due to heavy rains Asante was not able to visit Apinaman and Asaman where a catechist had already found that there were converts - 9 in the latter (6 having already lapsed out of an original group of 15) and 10 in the former. There are converts too in Asuom, Apapam and its 3 neighbouring villages. In this situation of great potential development Asante suggests that 3 experienced catechists should be posted to Abomosu, Asaman and Apinaman (perhaps ordained as deacons first) and to save money first put into rented accommodation in the actual villages until it can be seen more clearly what was to emerge. Over events in Kibi: Asante had forbidden the Christian teachers to write letters for Ata without his knowledge (they were, of course, Akims). When the Okyenhene heard this he sent messengers to his advocate on the Coast and these returned on the day before the assembly in which Asante was ordered to leave Akim. At the meeting on the 20th the elders of the towns already named were in the assembly, with the asafos (young team). In the manuscript he lists a series of 6 charges made against him by the Okyenhene the only one (not reflected in the printed version in the Heidenbote, 1878 pp9ff) being that Asante had accused him of common theft. The Friday between the formal assembly and banning of Asante, and the riot on the station was the Friday before the Adae festival. Ata had - at some stage in the few months previously or in the actual events of August and September, three times conveyed charges against D. Asante to 'the highest people on the coast'. At the end of the report Asante writes a commentary on some of the charges made by the king against him: concerning the charge that Asante had charged the king with theft, Asante had charged members of the king's household with theft of goat of his, which the king had had to take on himself. And Asante had struck three of the king’s ‘boys’ who had chased hens on the station one Sunday morning during the conducting of a service. Asante's report gives a somewhat more detailed account of the Akwapimhene's embassy to Kibi which hinged on the question why no representative of Akwapim had been present during the legal proceedings which led to the banning of Asante from Akim. When Ata returned from his visit to the Coast in the middle of August it was with the Governor's commission to disarm the Juabens in Akim.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 12.10.1877 Proper date: 12.10.1877 Description An account of the resource Includes the point that though the Governor had summoned the Okyenhene and his supporters to Christiansborg on 1st November, he was hoping that the case would be settled peaceably between the parties so that this would not be necessary. The Akropong missionaries had sent Kwabi as their representative to mediate but Ata had refused to entertain him in this role. People fear that Asante has gone too far in opposition to Ata. Some missionaries think all would be solved if the Okyenhene heard that a white missionary was to be stationed in Kibi again, but Buck himself does not think so — he once say the Okyenhene when he came in (the Christiansborg mission compound presumably) to buy something, and reckons he is not a very intelligent chief.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 28.12.1877 Proper date: 28.12.1877 Description An account of the resource Asante had recently been on the coast over the question of events in Kibi. Buck had been invited before the Governor to answer the question to whom the Governor should approach to express himself concerning the charges made against Asante and press that he should be moved to some other district. Buck pointed him to the Generalpraeses and also said that the matter would have to be referred to Basel. He asks Dieterle to ensure that any defence of Asante's conduct before the Governor should be made through him (Buck), and adds that since the Okyenhene came out of the affair without punishment such a defence would only help with the Governor - it would not better the position in Kibi.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 27.02.1878 Proper date: 27.02.1878 Description An account of the resource In part is printed as appendix to the 1878 Annual report of the Mission (p. 87ff). The additional material is almost entirely personal, concerning his marriage late in 1877 (at a time just after the death of one missionary wife, and when another was critically ill), though he also makes the point that very few people from Abetifi town have visited the services on the station, and their greatest contact with the people of the town has been through street preaching. The first part of the report is taken up with an account of the building epic – a labour force of 100 at times, and the weather undoing much of the work once it was done – ½ year lost in this way.
