Iowa Physicians At Cairo

Dr. W. H. White, of Iowa City, passed through this city yesterday on his return home from Cairo, whither he had been at his own expense to alleviate the sufferings of the wounded.  He says that he met with the following physicians from our State at Cairo engaged in the same praiseworthy work, viz: Drs. Maxwell and McCarn, of Davenport, Bell, of Wapello, Bartlett, of Marengo, Chambers and Turner of Tipton, and Hoofman, of Oskaloosa.
