Richard Hooker Wilmer Papers by Episcopal Church. Diocese of Alabama. Bishop (1862-1900 : Wilmer) PDF Summary

Book Description: Correspondence with Bishop William Rollinson Whittingham, mostly relating to Wilmer's episcopate. Principal materials concern the years 1865-1866 and Wilmer's activities at the end of the Civil War, among them his desire for reunion of the Episcopal Churches North and South and his role therein; his views on relations of church and state; his resistance to encroachment on church rights by Northern military authority in Alabama (including a copy of the Pastoral Letter to his Diocese about those troubles); the resolution of the General Convention concerning him; pressure on President Johnson to end military interference in church affairs; clergy who were threatened with violence; Wilmer's refusal to pray for the President; and rights of the united Church. Later manuscripts concern Wilmer's visit to St. John's Parish, Hagerstown, 1867, and Baltimore, 1870; his need for an assistant bishop, 1890; and his certificate of ordination to the priesthood for John Gardner Murray (later Bishop of Maryland and Presiding Bishop), 1894.
