Charges against French, related to an incident on Louse Creek and his reporting ahead of his company, to Camp Ruhlen (later Ft. Meade, and also known briefly for Lt. Sturgis of 7th Cavalry. Were brought by Maj. Henry M. Lazelle.
Wiki - Camp J.C. Sturgis, started in July 1878, about two miles northwest of nearby Bear Butte, was first named Camp Ruhlen for Lt. George Ruhlen, 17th U.S. Infantry quartermaster officer who supervised the building of the post. It was established by Major Henry M. Lazelle, 1st U.S. Infantry, and companies D and H of the 11th U.S. Infantry on a site selected by Lieutenant General Philip H. Sheridan, on the east side of Bear Butte Creek, in the Black Hills, fourteen miles northeast of the town of Deadwood, South Dakota.
General Order No. 27, issued at Department of Dakota Headquarters, announced that the Secretary of War had designated the post "Fort Meade" in honor of Major George G. Meade, of Civil War fame. The first commander was Colonel Samuel D. Sturgis, 7th Cavalry.
The work of building the post, for which an appropriation of $100,000.00 had been made, was begun on August 28, 1878, and completed in August, 1879.

Lazelle, the painter Whistler and Marcus A. Reno, were all friends during cadetship at West Point.
Besides French, Reno was subsequently brought up on further charges by Col. Sturgess, less than two months after completing a previous sentence handed down by...... Couts Martial. It is possible that there were problems with the water supply at the Cheyenne's sacred mountain, where Sweet Medicine received the covenant of the Sacred Arrows, and Cheyennes pray and fast.
