Late Bishop Ames Known for Indian Ties and Stoic Resolve
A Baltimore obituary sketch portrays Bishop Edward BR. Ames of the Maryland Methodist diocese as fiercely self reliant among tribes. It notes his abstinence from stimulants in illness, a habit of joining tribes by adopting moccasins, and his calm amid dangers including mosquitos and a murder scene. He declined commissions during Lincoln and Grant administrations due to ecclesiastical duties.
