J.J. Hamilton, M.D., came of Carrington with his family in 1898. He practiced here until 1902 when Dr. E.L. Goss bought out his practice. Nothing further is known about him except for the notice of his death in September 1911 at Rolfe, Iowa when the Independent states that he left Carrington about 10 years ago.
