UHLER KANNELL TAKEN
TO COLUMBUS BARRACKS
Becomes Dreadfully Home
sick and Runs Away.
Probate Court in This County Says
Man is Not Insane but Is Unfit for
Army Service.

A rather peculiar case came to the
attention of Probate Judge Spencer
Friday evening, when Sidney Kannell,
residing near Scottown, preferred a
lunacy charge against his brother,
Uhler c. Kannell. The young man
was brought before Judge Spencer
and an examination developed that he
was simply homesick and melancholy
TO such an extent that he is probably
not responsible for his actions, but
still Is not a menace to the community
or TO himself.
Uhler Kannell enlisted in the Uni
ted states army last March. Since
then he has been stationed at the Co
Iumbus barracks and the routine has
palled upon him. Two weeks ago he
ran away and came to his home near
Scottown. His brother took him back
and several days ago he ran away
again.
Judge Spencer could not see his
way clear TO declaring o." man in
sane, but at the same ii i'o does not
consider him fit for military duty. He
has suggested this TO the army Off
cials and recommended Hannelrs dis
charge
Kannell was again taken to the
barracks this morning by his brother
and II is likely that steps Will be taken
TO have his enlistment cancelled and
his discharge ordered. The boy Is
simply homesick," said Judge Spen-
Ger this morning. "and / believe will
get along all right If he is discharged
from the army"
