Before Antietam
"To day [4 June 1862], I have received the Presidents order of yesterday in Captain Cothrans case, 'vacating the sentence and returning him to duty as Captain of New York Artillery'. He had been dismissed March 6th by General McClellan's order, in execution of the sentence of a Court Martial."
