Hi,
might be this two links will help you find the information needed:
History of Hamilton County, Iowa: https://sites.google.com/site/hamiltoncountyhistory/
Webster’s City First Hospital by Martin E. Nass: http://iagenweb.org/hamilton/WebsterCityFirstHosp.htm
you could also send a request to the University of Iowa libraries http://www.lib.uiowa.edu/eresources/ and ask them if they could send you a copy of the article which appeared in the Des Moins Register on the Webster City Hospital. It seems they have the online version.
let me know if these suggestion work
