Von Amedschowe, in einer Entfernung von einer halben Stunde im Norden, sieht man die schöne und eigenthümliche Kuppel, die unsere Ansicht darstellt, und die, wundersam genug, 'Gemmi' heisst."; Note translation: Similar photo Cf. D-30.051.011. (PST). - Published as no 30 in the album 'Achtzig Ansichten von der Goldküste (Westafrika) nach Originalaufnahmen des Missionars Fritz Ramseyer', (= 'Eighty views of the Gold Coast (West Africa) photographed by the missionary Fritz Ramseyer'), Neuenburg 1895. - Caption there: "The mountain dome called 'Gemmi' (Togoland). The form of the mountain reminds us of Switzerland, but so does its name.
