The first circled area is in quotes. The second circled area seems to be the poster's take on the quoted section.
The second part appears to be a part of the ruling that I can’t find.

The case centered around Milligan being tried in a military court for aiding the Confederacy. However, the US Supreme Court held that military tribunals were not legal if the state in which Milligan was charged still had functioning civilian courts which Indiana had.
Oh well...
