Anna and the expansive grounds of the State Hospital anchor the northwestern corner of this Southern Illinois survey, which reveals a landscape deeply intertwined with the Cache River and its tributaries. The terrain transitions from the upland ridges near Mt Pleasant and Moscow down to the low-lying wetlands of the south, where the Illinois Central Railroad and Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad converge near Ullin and Joppa Junction. This rail-heavy corridor facilitated the movement of goods and people between agricultural settlements like Dongola and Wetaug.
