The Muscatine Courier reports the 6th Iowa Cavalry at Davenport signed a pay-before-service pact, while Linn County’s two companies are urged to remain loyal and aid in suppressing rebellion. A pro slavery general is cashiered after trial and President approval, drawing disunion scorn. Cedar Rapids citizens rally with Capt Bates from Missouri praising federal leadership in the nation’s peril.
