The Road to Civil War

(21 December, 1817 -- 30 June, 1883) Case was an American lawyer, soldier, and politician. Born in Austinburg, Ohio, Case studied law and was admitted to the bar and commenced practice in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Case was elected as a Republican to the Thirty-Fifth Congress, filling a vacancy caused by the death of Samuel Brenton. Case was reelected to the Thirty-Sixth Congress serving from December 7, 1857 to March 3, 1861. After an unsuccessful attempt at reelection, Case served as first lieutenant of the Fourty-fourth Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry. Later, Case served as a major for the Third Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Cavalry. Case resumed the practice of law in Washington D.C. after the war, dying in Washington County, Iowa in 1883.
