Iowa 2d Regiment


We received a short letter yesterday, from Mr. John Marple, Co. B. 2d Iowa, dated Fort Henry, Tennessee, March 13th.  He says that he was at that time in pursuit of his regiment, which had crossed the country from Fort Donelson, and joined the fleet, which was at the time about thirty miles above Fort Henry.
