Attendance at services is again cited as evidence of the liveliness of religion in the community. In Apapam the catechist's house is being built. In Adpeäwa the Christians are still not settled on mission land, and some have lapsed. In Tete after a general lapse people are attempting to be re-accepted, Offerings are made well and Church Tax is generally well paid - those reckoned to be capable and delinquent are brought before the Presbyter. Numbers in the district increased by 76 to 488. There were 59 adult converts in Kibi, 4 in Apapam, 5 in Tete, 6 in Apedwa. One Kibi converts was another sub-chief and relative of Bosompem, by name Salomo Ampofo. He claims to have come to the conclusion that the heathen trappings of his office were vanity, and wished to rule not according to heathen usages but to act according to British law as Joseph Bosoinpem has done, baptised 6th July. An elderly man named Abraham Bosomtwe was also baptised. He had been right through-his life, a 'soul' to the queen mother ‘of Kibi'. But ‘only trouble and pains of heart has been reaped out of it’.

Description An account of the resource This is an account of an event in Adadentem in January 1883. As they came to the town through the forest they heard an enormous uproar, and when Buck appeared the people immediately ran to him for an opinion on their argument and he had to remind them that he should be sat down, formal greetings exchanged, and palm wine drunk. The question turned out to be whether a young man reaching the age to look after himself, should first make a farm or first build a house. Buck gives the summary of the arguments which he heard when he offered to arbitrate – the case of God giving Adam a farm but no house was cited by one side. He preserved the story apparently as an example of what people in A Africa spend their time doing.

It was difficult to find lodging in Okurease because of the number of people resting the overnight. He had a discussion with a fetish priest in Okurease. En route from Okurease to Asiemang they passed through a small farming village belonging to the Asiamang chief who was destooled and driven on it in the previous year. The people had never heard Christian preaching. The Christians in Asiamang made a good impression. He also visited the Queen mother, an ordinary looking old lady, and when he asked an elder of the town why they had chosen such a person, the elder replied 'So we are more powerful ourselves*. Asiamang looked a notable, if not beautiful town.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 16.10.1884 Proper date: 16.10.1884 Description An account of the resource Concerning Evangelist Okanta. It has appeared that-Okanta had been dealing in India-rubber. When faced with this he eventually admitted this was true, and accused most of his local colleagues of the same. Pressed he named Sakyi. Marquart also discovers there was trouble between Okanta and the presbyter, one Daniel. The next day in Okorase Marquart met the oldest Aaiamang Christian, Moses, This men complained that over the last two months most of Okanta's duties in the community had lapsed and he had been acting as middleman organising the collection of rubber to despatch not to the Mission Factory but to Merchant Fischer. A young man who had stolen money from him after being engaged in the trade had had to be chased from the area around Okanta's house. He had also told the community not to tell any white man or any of the other local agents of the Mission, what was occurring. While all this testimony was being provided Boakye and James Okae gave the unasked-for information thst in 1882 Okanta had embezzled an amount of church tax, taking it from people baptised only at Christmas, which was not necessary, and then not reporting it. (The matter then got mixed up with the illness of Mrs D. Huppenbauer and some misunerstandings between the missionaries). Marquart uses a strong language when he found his testimony appeared to have been doubted in Akropong. A similar bout of fortright speaking is to be found in Huppenbauer’s comment on the Müller report in doubting the actuality of the response to the Mission reported previously in Asuum and district (Huppenbauer was then resident in Schorndorf).

He denied collecting rubber, and as for forbidding the community to tell stories to white men etc. He claimed he had asked them to stout everything first to him. Ramseyer obviously believes some if not many of the charges to be exaggerated. It was irregular that he had not been formally charged in the presence of Deacon Date. On the other hand things having got to the stage they had he had probably better be dismissed. he had been very rude to Marquart.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 12.03.1885 Proper date: 12.03.1885 Description An account of the resource Nsawam, a new out-station, is seven hours from Aburi, four hours from Nsakye, on the border towards Akyem and on the river Densu. The inhabitants of the village are Akyems who have settled at the extreme edge of Aburi territory with the permission of the Aburi chief. The Nsawam chief attended our school in Akropong for a short while and is a brother of Dompre the well-known general in the war of Asante against Krepi and Anum. He is very happy that we have founded an out-station in Nsawam and has given over the house he is currently building to the Evangelist for the first few months. The whole community was happy at the arrival of the Evangelist and his family. The first baptisms took place on 13th July - six adults with their four children. When I visited this small but pleasant congregation, I felt very happy to be with them and these first Christians made a very promising impression. I was delighted with the work of the Evangelist, too, James Opare. He has had very little schooling and knows relatively little about reading and writing. But he does know enough to teach in his village school. He has his heart in his work and although he earns less now that in his earlier post. He puts all his energy into what he does in Nsawam. I wish we had more like him.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 20.01.1885 Proper date: 20.01.1885 Description An account of the resource Written by David Asante. The Boso community had built a new swish-wall chapel, and this has shamed the Anun community into starting a similar chapel. The Anum community lost 2 members by exclusion, and 1 through death (a child). It gained 5 by Christians coming to live in Anum and 5 from the birth of children. There were five baptisms out of a class of 9. Only one of them was a woman, an ex-fetish priestess. Asante gives a relatively satisfactory picture of the life of the community. Services have been more regularly attended, and the members has exercised a stricter discipline among themselves. The adults excluded were excluded because of adultery, which was promptly reported to him so that appropriate action could be taken. Otherwise married life was conducted in a manner better than he expected; only their ideas of how to bring up children are still rather undeveloped. In Boso there have been 17 adult baptisms, and 17 child baptisms. (6 catechumens lapsed). Preaching has been carried out by Teacher Asiedu in the surrounding villages To, Tonko, Pareman and Dodi. From Pareman there are Catechumens who come regularly to Boso services, and boys who come regularly to the Boso school. Asante himself claims to have travelled for 78 days in the year. 6 of them in the Akwamu villages, the rest in Buem-Nkonya-Salaga-Obooso district.
