New Light on Camp Thomas Water and Disease Claims
A large crowd heard Dr. Morse at court house hall Sunday as he presented photographs and explanations about Chickamauga Park drainage. He contested claims that drainage polluted the camp water, showed a river ditch below the pumping station, and noted springs are clean yet carry typhoid risk. He stressed boiled water for soldiers, described maggoty sinks, and praised officers while preserving facts on rations and hospital care.
