Kentucky Post, Wednesday, 2 August 1899, page 3

William H Nixon, of Bellevue, an old navy veteran of the Civil War, returned home Tuesday night from Newport News, Old Point Comfort and other Eastern cities. He says the yellow fever in the Soldiers Home is worse than is made known. People are leaving in hundreds every day and whole families are departing with household effects.

The news from the home, he says, is being kept secret. He says the disease has scared hundreds from the resort and it will be a big loss to the various business men.
