CHICKAMAUGA, Ca, June %
Capt. S. r. Miller, of Company H,
Fourteenth Minnesota volunteers, re-
signed today. Soon after Capt. Miller
took command of the company he be-
gan to realize the immense business
interests he had neglected and turned
over to other parties to attend. He
has been county attorney for Renville
county for period of twenty years
or more and was at the time Of his
entering the service in the discharge
of his duties as county attorney. He
had an immense probate business that
he had been carefully building up for
twenty-four years. Aside from his
county attorney duties he had an eX-
tensive law practice amounting to a
handsome income. He had heavy real
estate adjustments that had been left
entirely in his hands.
On the 10th day Of May he answered
the call of the governor for his COM
pany, just five days before the spring
term Of the district court. which con-
vened at Beaver Falls. MINI. He hast
ened to Renville, and assigned thirty
criminal cases and other business con-
nected with his county attorney duties
to Attorney r. T. Daily. of that place,
in order to relieve himself of some OF
the responsibility.

locked up his law Office. and once more
answered to the call of Uncle Sam for
volunteers.
He considered it a painful duty, in
the face Of the heavy loss that the
neglect OF such business interests would
necessarily incur, to tender his resigna-
ton. His company keenly regrets that
their captain must return home.

While his condition has been serious
it is daily improving. However, it is
almost certain that the captains soldier

will probably remain there.
