UHL is a Republican, and was elected by his party, in 1868, County Auditor, and, after serving four years, was reelected, with an increased majority.
UHL participated in the "Battle of the Wilderness," on the Po, at Spottsylvania, North Ann, Cold Harbor, Deep Bottom, Weldon Railroad, Hatcher's Run, and the numerous and almost incessant engagements in the final siege of Petersburg, in one of which he had a portion of his left ear shot away.
UHL was struck by a canon ball, almost severing his left limb from the body, and that night, of the original company starting from Reynolds, Indiana, in 1861, only two were there to answer at roll call.
