Former Grnenrastle Man Krinstatad. In the Washington dispatches today we notice the following: The committee on military aflairs in the House has ordered a favorable report on the hill to amend the military record of Daniel S. Place, first lieutenant of the Eighteenth Indiana Volunteers. Lieutenant Place won his commission for meritorious conduct, having enlisted as a private. While serving at Elmira, on duty at prison camp, he was charged with “conduct prejudicial to good order and diseipline” and “eonduet unbeeuuiiug an officer and gentleman,’’ the specifications being that he did, contrary to orders, carry out and mail letters for prisoners of war confined in camp. He was found guilty of the offense charged by a court-martial, but as the letters were shown to tie of purely social character and contained nothing of importance the sentence of the court was out of all proportion to the offense in that it sentenced him to lie cashiered from the service and forever prohibited trom holding any office of trust or emolument under the United States government; that his sword be broken by a non-commissioned officer, Ins straps taken from his shoulders and his buttons cut from his coat in the presence of the troops of the command. The. latter part of the sentence, requiring Iiis personal degradation in the presence of the troops of the command, was disapproved by Gen. A. S. Devter, eoiniiiatiding the military district of New York. On March 15, 181(5, the case was reopened at the instance of Senator Henry S. Lane, of Indiana, and lengthy report made and filed by the acting judge advocate-general of the army, in which, among Other tilings, he says: “It is not believed that he should be disfranchised and as he is represented to be a man of good character and undoubtedly loyal, the interests of the service would justify a removal of all disability in order tb enable him to re-enter Hie service if the governor of the state sees proper to commission him." On this report, by direction of the president, the disability to re-enter the service was removed. There remains, therefore, against Lieutenant Place nothing of the original sentence save the dismissal fiom the army, which, in view of his established loyalty before and after the offt use charged, the trivial character of the offence itself, viewed in the light of the facta submitted to the Judge Advocate General on the teopening of the case, his brave, etficient and faithful services as a soldier, bis high character and standing as a citizen during the thirty years that liave passed since the war, the committee believes, ought to he removed. Mr. Place formerly resided in Greencastle and is remembered by our older citizens.
