The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1899-01-06

These hgures will surprise people
who have supposed that the soldiers
have been dying by thousands. Per-
sons familiar with military history in
sist that there never was Campaign in
any country in which the per centage
was so small, and it is contended that
it is less than has occurred in any city
of the world OF a similar population
during the unhealthful months. The
most remarkable feature is the small
number of men who died from wounds.
This is believed to have been due to
the antiseptic treatment.
