It  proves  however  that  Burpe  is  the  Christian  name  of  one  Ames  in
Salem.  He  tells  me  that  his  father  belonged  to  Rowley  &  his
Grandmother's  name  was  Burpe  ft  that  he  bore  his  father's  name
Burpe  Ames.
This  evening  I  had  the  company  of  the  B.  I.  Bishop,  A.  V.
Griswold,  Bishop  of  four  New  England  States.  He  had  been
elected  with  a  view  to  future  arrangements,  but  his  consecration
became  expedient  ft  he  is  now  upon  the  visitation  of  his  Clergy.
