Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 28.06.1891 Proper date: 28.06.1891 Description An account of the resource An answer to questions about marriages between Christians and heathens posed by the Basel Committee (see Anum letter no. 118). The answer is roughly the same as for Anum, though more detailed. Dieterle and Eisenschmid had both advised him in the early days in Abetifi that it had been permitted for Christian men in Akim to marry heathen girls in default of Christian girls – and this is still to some extent the case in Abetifi. Even though there are marriageable Christian girls they may not choose to marry a particular man, and then the man must look elsewhere. Before this happens, however, the presbyters have to examine the case, and the girl has to promise to live on the station, while the relatives have to promise that if the girl later offers herself for baptism they will not hinder her. After the traditional ceremonies are complete, the man and wife come before the presbyters who set out to them the regulations about marriage, and then pray with them. Ramseyer declares himself satisfied with this procedure - many of the wives have in fact become Christians later.

This allows them to take provisions with them, salt, parrafin, mattresses. Any child is allocated one load. He would like also a rule of four weeks holiday, and since this is regularly extended by 4-8 days without permission a clause to be inserted in the regulations allowing a pro rata reduction of the monthly payment involved. He also suggests that for people working in a community it should be made clear that holidays are a concession – given willingly it is true - and not a right. Too many catechists etc. take off for Akwapim without getting prior permission.

The Station's Conference advices that these have to be sanctioned in new community where the Christian men have no Christian girls with whom they can marry. If the man remains a Christian there is no question of the marriage becoming polygamous, and the Christian upbringing of the children is assured. Therefore they suggest an insertion in the proposed draft that Christian men in the new community with no marriageable Christian girls should have the right to marry a heathen. They are opposed to giving Christian girls permission to marry a heathen man, because there is no guarantee that the marriage will not become polygamous, and there is every possibility that the children will be brought up heathen.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Date early: 31.07.1891 Proper date: 31.07.1891 Description An account of the resource On crossing the Abo he talks about reaching the 'German fatherland” and the “German soil”. Martin's box carrier was from one of the Sohai villages, a converted fetish priest aged 32 years, who since his conversion had been in Anum attending the school to learn to read. He was welcomed - in his absence the people had begun to believe that the fetish had killed him. Martin has tried to converse with him about his previous religion, and question him as to how he could live with his conscience when he practiced so much deception, but his reply is always that he believed that he was serving God. Martin thinks that he had been consciously trying for some time to do everything to find a favourable God, and had got into a lot of debt because of this (The conversion occurred in connection with the work of Teacher Tenkorang). When they preached in Sohai Martin told the people they were all sinners, with one way out, but at the end of his preaching all the people but one woman and two men commenced to play and dance and create a terrible noise (The ex-fetish priest was called Immanuel Obofoo, and he owned three houses). He speaks of coming onto the Salaga road just before reaching the village of Vakpo, from Botoku. In the last Vakpo village and the first Kpando village he speaks about being asked to bind up wounds. In Kpando itself they preached in the face of interruptions and arguments. They had to speak sternly to the king who was trying to prevent a woman from becoming a Christian – they threatened to report him to the German Regime - in the end the woman was allowed to go to Nkonya with them. Martin was disappointed with Kpando market - it was concerned with foodstuffs - the Mohammedans playing the leading role. They also had a sharp altercation with Mohammedans about the relative status of Mahomet and Christ - the Mohammedan quarter he places north of the market. In Ntwumuru the chief asked Martin if he had done right in accepting the German flag (which in another moment in the conversation he said had been forced upon him), and also wanted to know what the difference was between the Germans and the English. Martin writes that he explained the latter, but felt the former was not his problem and so did not comment. They preached on the Sunday in the three different sections of Ntwumuru town – the largest crowd being 200, though Martin feels they were mostly inspired by curiosity. At the Abo on the route to Peki there was a tree, used as a bridge which Martin ascribes tout court to the Mohammedans. He actually saw loads of merchandise being carried across. He was using Obofo as his interpreter in Krepe.
