6.  "Dr. Archibald Stevens Maxwell long enjoyed a large practice here.  Of Scotch desent, a native of Ohio, graduated from Hudson college, Cleveland, he came to Davenport in 1855, invested and lost considerable money, and then went actively to work in his profession.  Sent to the front by Governor Kirkwood, who had been a boyhood friend, he served with credit at the siege of Vicksburg and elsewhere, returning here in 1864 for twenty years more of hard work.  Then with broken health he went to California where, near Los Angeles, he died in 1884.
