At the opening of the war, through the influence of Senator Grimes, he was commissioned Captain in the 11th U. S. Inf., and at once entered upon the duties of Recruiting Officer and Military Commander at Burlington; in 1862, he was sent to Indianapolis, Ind., on mustering and disbursing duty, and, in the fall of that year, was appointed Commander of that post, which position he held until the spring of 1863; after three years' service, he was forced to resign his commission on occount of impaired health by reason of exposure and exhausting activity in the discharge of his duties, and, after some time spent in recuperation, he again entered upon the practice of his profession; aside from his profession, he has filled many positions of honor and trust; from 1855 to 1857, he held the office of Judge of Des Moines County, and, in the fall of 1874, was appointed by Gov.
