Bearhart, Amos ( - 19 JUN 1890)

Amos Bearhart, one of the most intelligent Indians in the state, died at his home some eleven miles south of this city (Neillsville, Clark County), last Saturday, June 19, 1890. Mr. Bearhart was interpreter for the Winnebagoes, and an unusually well educated Indian. He met with an accident last fall or winter, and several philanthropic people endeavored to collect sufficient funds to send him to the Oliver Wendell Holmes Hospital at Hudson. Their efforts were but partially successful. However, Mr. Bearhart was at no time sufficiently recovered from the accident to have been moved. He will be a great loss to the Winnebago Tribe living in his neighborhood. He was their guide and counselor, and what few have prospered owe their prosperity to his guidance. Amos Bearhart was a familiar figure on the streets of this city. Physically he was a powerful Indian of commanding appearance, and would attract attention everywhere.
