Book 3 Chapter 1 - Two Crosses At KM 2.4 - Roman Catholic Vs Anglican Role In Om

BOOK 3 CHAPTER 1 - Two Crosses at KM 2.4 - Anglican Approved, Catholic Recorded Anger

INTRODUCTION - WHY TWO CHURCHES MATTER:

In 1907 at KM 2.4 Goja Road, there were not 2 witnesses - There were 3:

Government DC - Ordered fence
Anglican CMS missionary - Wrote "good progress" - Approved
Catholic SMA missionary - Wrote "forced, still angry" 8 years later - Recorded pain

Same event, two crosses, two different reports. Why?

DEEPER HISTORY NEVER SEEN BEFORE:

ANGLICAN CMS - ALLIED WITH WARRANT CHIEF AND GOVERNMENT:

CMS came to Ezaa 1904-1906 with Government - Government gave CMS land for church near Ananqua Native Court
Warrant Chief Ananqua was CMS convert - Baptised - So CMS protected him
When DC ordered 45 Omuagu men to build court fence, CMS diary wrote "good progress" because fence helped CMS court and CMS church - CMS benefited
CMS 1907 needed forced labour to build their own mission house too - So they could not condemn forced labour
Source pattern: CMS G3 A3/O always writes "progress, chief cooperative, school growing" - Never writes "forced"

ROMAN CATHOLIC SMA - ALLIED WITH OMUAGU KING AND ELDERS:

SMA came later 1906-1908 to Omuagu side, not Ananqua - SMA mission in Ezzangbo, far from Government court
SMA priests learned Ezaa language - Lived with elders - Not with Warrant Chief
Ezaa elders told SMA truth: "We were forced, real power is Omuagu council not Ananqua Warrant Chief" - SMA wrote it 1913
SMA 1913 burial rite "hoe and machete in grave" - SMA respected Ezaa burial, CMS did not - CMS burial was English coffin
SMA 1915 wrote "still angry" 8 years after - Means SMA kept visiting Omuagu and saw trauma still there - CMS never went back to Omuagu to check
Source pattern: SMA 2/Onitsha writes "forced, elders laugh at Warrant Chief, real king is Omuagu" - Always sides with elders

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR KM 2.4 TODAY:

If you call Anglican priest to bless wall at KM 2.4, you bless the church that approved your grandfathers being forced
If you call Catholic priest to bless wall, you bless the church that recorded "forced, still angry" and recognized Omuagu king
That is why CH36 said Catholic not Anglican should bless

NEW RESEARCH FOR BOOK 3 WE NEVER DID:

We need to find:

Name of CMS missionary at Ananqua 1907 - Who wrote "good progress"? Check CMS G3 A3/O 1907 - Likely Rev. S. R. Smith or T. J. Dennis - Find his photo
Name of SMA missionary at Ezzangbo 1913-1915 - Who wrote "forced, still angry"? Likely Fr. Joseph Shanahan (later Bishop) - He toured Ezaa 1913 - Find his diary page
Baptism records: Did 45 men later become Catholic or Anglican? Check 1921 baptism book - If they became Catholic, proves they rejected Anglican Warrant Chief church
