DIVISION ORDERS,
Savannah,October 25, 1802.
The Court Martial, of which Major Shad!
was IVrfi lent, ordered for the tcLi of Lieu-1
t'-na.nt Stacklioufe, on the charges exhibited
£ gain ft him by Lt. Col. Mitchell, ha vino
found him guilty of the firfi, third, end fourth
ch^ges —*to wit :
“ isl. F<>r uno.fficei like con duel on the eve
ning of the 29th of September hid, whiiit or.!
duty, in breaking open, and taking pofidlLr
by military force, of the houfc of Mr. Isom
Clay, cn Tybee I(land.
30k For disobedience of orders end unoffi
cerlikc conducß, in leaving his poll from the
morning of the 30th of September until his
detachment was relieved.
/th. For disobedience of orders and unoffi
cial.ke con duel, on the eleventh inflant, i n
iiOt delivering up his sword when arreffitd/’
And thereon having feme need him to re
ceive a reprimand from the Major-Genera! I
and to pay a sum of one hundred and eighty
dollars, being equal to fix months psy when
in aclual icrvicc—the con
firms the fcnter.ee and difibives the court,
Whiitl* however, the Major-General is in
duced to confirm the sentence, he is impelled
to remark that it has been more incufip-enr
than Lieutenant bcackhoule had a right to
expedt. The Lieutenant was lent to the Ra
tion at Cockfpur, to piotebl the citizens and
their property —not to violate their rmhrs and
bicxk open their houses. He was in actual
1’ 1 vice—-*L.ie country in a hare of alarm, not
only in Georgia, but along the whole foutherrT
mail of the United States. Invasion and in
furrt&ion were expedleJ, againfl either 0/
which the Rate had a right to pro cedi herfelf
until the arm of the Union could extended
to her sup port. In f >ch a situation as this,
for an officer to leave his post—the post ot
HONOR as regarded hi ml elf, and of TRUST
as i: refpedbu his country —was unpardona
ble. It Erected his commiluon, if the rigour
oi the law had been pursued—is not his life.
•Again, as it refpedrs the fourth charge. —
The refufal of his sword to the order of the
Colonel, is a profs violation of all Tm ilic aj n
rule—the commission is the authority under
which the officer it as a right to wear the sword
as such —and the ivvord is the security or bail
ro the Rate, that the officer will faithfully
perform the trust repo fed in him—if the prin
cipal fails the security becomes liable, and thr
sword must be taken from the officer charged
with violating his contrails.
But the idea of an offieerV fwor ! being
private property after he receives his corn
million is a mißaken one —the comnuffion is
an exchange for its value—lt belongs foiely
to his country as refpebts its use whilß lie
Folds h*is commission, and may legally and j
shall be demanded hereafter cn all occasions
of arrest, in the firiC chvmon, and the‘officer
refufing Riall be punifiied if a Court Martial
wilt order it—or be confined if the arretling
officer requires it.
* c is hoped thatjthe leniency of the sentence in
the cale ot Lieut. Stuckhoufe will never be
relied on by any officer on any future occasion.
Lieutenant Suckhoufe Rands highly culpable
in the Major-General’s view, and is hereby
Jeverely reprimanded, with a hope that it
veil! be a warning to him in his future milita
ry walks.
The Lieutenant will pay into the hands j
of the proper officer of the Chatham Regi
ment, the fine of one hundred and eighty dol
lars—being the sentence of the court, within
cnc month from the dare of this order, and
Rand arreßed until the fame is discharged—
r,o resignation will be accepted—and if tire 1
fame be not paid in one month, the com
manding officer of the Chatham Regiment
will ilTuc His warrant to ievy the fame.
This order will be published in one of the
Gazettes or this city, for the information of the
officers c the First Division.
