William Maxwell Wood was then Fleet Surgeon of the United States Squadron. This officer having obtained permission to return home, Commodore Sloat entrusted him with written dispatches and private advices which it was thought best not to commit to paper. * The : Doctor took the route through Mexico, accompanied by Mr. Parrott, United States Consul at Mazatlan, who was also on his way home. When the party arrived at Guadalajara, the town was in a state of agitation arising from rumors of war. Fo...rtunately, Dr. Wood was well acquainted with the Spanish language. Very soon he gathered irom conversations in his proximity, not intended for his ear, that a collision between the United States and Mexican forces had taken place along the Rio Grande. The Mexican papers gave exaggerated accounts of what had occurred. The feelings of the people were excited. There was no time for reflection in an emer gency requiring instant action. The Doctor was a peculiarly cool and sagacious man, a-nd of unflinching courage.
