The State courts differ widely in their Construction of the law relative to the enlistment of minors in the service of the United States. Ohio and some other States hold Unit minors who have been mustered in, even though they had not the consent of their parents or guardians, must be held. In Wisconsin, however, the contrary decision has just been rendered by a commissioner of the court, in the case of a minor who had enlisted in the 9th (German) regiment at Milwaukee.
