He Shaved Many Notable’s

John H. Warwick, colored, a barber of sixty years’ experience with the razor, during which time he has shaved most of the notable characters of the country, died in Davenport. He was formerly body servant to Junius Brutus Booth, had shaved Henry Clay, in the prominent ante-bellum days, and when in a reminiscent vein was an excellent story-teller.
