It was ill the Then it was that General Lee brouj^ht forward the balance of his army and concentrated it around Winchester, after which he started on his march for Pennsylvania, moving- in the direction of Williamsport fording, where the majority of his army crossed the Potomac river into Maryland, lea\ing behind him in Virginia General J. E. B. Stuart with ten or twelve thousand cavalry, with instructions to keep constant and faithful watch on General Hooker, of our anny (the Union Army), and to prevent him from following in pursuit. Such was the duty that Lee assigned to Stuart and his cavalry, and for the present I w^ill leave Stuart and his cavalry in the vicinity of Winchester, Va., while I follow Lee's army on to Gettj^sburg. From the time General Lee crossed the Potomac river up until the battle began there was nothing in his front to interfere with his onward march, except one company of cavalry (company C, First New York, better known in those days as the Lincoln Cav- alry, under command of Captain William H. Boyd, who after- wards became colonel of the Twenty-first Pennsylvania cavalry, for gallant services rendered in the Gettysburg campaign). Captain Boyd contested every mile of the way from the Potomac river down the Cumberland V^alley to Carlisle. It was of his company that the first soldier was killed on Pennsylvania soil during the rebellion. Coporal Reil was killed at Greencastle on the 22d day of June. Lee after moving his army into Maryland, concentrated it at HagerstoMTi, six miles from the Potomac river and seventy-four miles from Hamsbnrg, his objective point. Lee proposed to move to Harnsburg with the main part of the command rm the Cumberland Valley, \Tiz: through Greencastle, Chambersburg, Shippimsburg, Newville, Cai'lisle, Mechanicsburg, and thence to Bridgeport, and cross the Susquehanna river to Harrisburg, gathering stock as he passed along, as well as pro- visions of all kind that existed in the vallej', and send the same back to Virginia by wagon train, and to raise at the same time all the money possible by assessing the various towns as he passed •'./ ibnnii;)) f«>r Uuf^v musm tunivr a Uirmt: "l*ay tliw money or I . . . .. will l.iini thoU.v • ' V - f Lii<«>'m unity WAH . ,y to HarnHbunr, Leo iDU'nd ms AjTfcuAm— «w «crr-nMaa York, tvrotjr-eiirbt miltii uortlH'snt (»f * rg to 10 GcttyaUuiy: How Uu: Jiultlc was FotujlU.

Wheu Lee's army ii'jiched Marion Station, six niih's from Ciiambersbiirg', he de- tached one division (General Early's), with instructions to move on this circuitous route. Early crossed the mountain on the Chambersburj^: i)ik<\ Tiiey reached G(!ttysburj^ on the twenty- sixth day of .June. They assessed the town for ten thousand dollai*s in cash, provisions of various kinds in proportion, includ in^ several barrels of sauer kraut. The sauer kraut not beinj:r in season, and the provisions, as a rule, having been sent away or concealed in advance of the enemy, and money appearing- to be hard to find that day, the order was not complied with. After having- been notilied by Chief Burgess Kendlehart that it was not possible to comply with the demand. Early moved from Gettys- btirg- to York, the county seat of York county. There he was more successful. It being a mucli larger town, his demands were greater. He demanded one hundred thousand dollars in cjish, with all things else in proportion. It is not for me to say defi- nitely as to tli(> exact amount that Early received at that time, but I can truthfully say that Early has said onl}' recently that the t()wn of York, Pa., owes him a little balance yet of twenty-eig-ht thousand dollars, so we must conclude that he got at that time seventy-two thousand dollars. It is known that he gathered a vast amount of provisions of all kinds, and secured uumeixjus horses and cattle. Early had advanced ui> to Wrightsville, and was preparing to cross the river as per instructicms from Lee, when a scout brought the news to Early jiot to cross the Suscjue- lianna river, but to fall back by thi^ same route that he went. In the meantime the main column of Lee's army had passed down the Cumberland Valley. Jenkins' Cavalry, being in advance, was occupying the countrj' from Mechanicsburg: to Bridg-eport, in sight of Harrisburg. You will observe that Mechanicsburg is only eight miles from Hairisburg, Lei>'s objective jioint at that time. Rhodes' and Johnson's divisicms of Ewell's corps were en- camped at Carlisle, only eig-hteen miles from Harrisburg ; A. P. Hill's corps was encamped at New>ille and Shippensburg, while (iettyltuitj . fitnf Ihi Ittttllf ikl 11 ' '- - ' - - - • • • • • . f?

General liliodes' division of Ewoll's forps was ordered from Carlisle tlirouf^h Mt. Holly pap, crossed tlu* South Mountain, and reached the town of Heidlers- burg:, on the road leadinpf from Harrisburgf, ten miles north of Gettysburfj; Avith five brifirades, as follows: Daniels', Iverson's, O'Neal's, liansoni's and Dole's. General Pender's division of Hills corps was sent from Ncwvillo by way of Pino Grove Furnace, on the Newville and Mumasburp road, reaching- a point on the latter ten miles northwest of Gettysburg. Hi! stopped for the night with four brigades, as follows: JTliomas", Lane's, Scales' and Mc- Gowen's. General Hany Heath's division of Hill's corps was ordered over the mountain by the Chambersburg pike, and on reaching the base of thi^ mountain at CashtowTi, eig-ht mih's west of Gettysburg, bivouaced for the nig-ht with four brigades, Archer's, Davis', Brackcnborough's and Pettigi-ew's. Johnson's division of Ewell's corps was moved up the Cumberland Valley to Shippensburg, thence across to Fayetteville, on the Chambers- burg pike, eighteen miles west of Gettysburg-, and with four brigades are halted for the nig-ht, viz : Jones', Williams', Walker's / and Stuart's. Lougfstreet's corps of three divisions is at Cham- bersburg- and vicinity—Hood's, McLaw's and Pickett's. You Avill oV)serve now that the Confederate Army on the even- ing of the thirtieth of June was located as follows : Early's division fifteen miles northeast, Rhodes' ten miles north, Pender's ten miles northwest, Heath's eight miles west, then a continuous line west to Chambersburg, twenty-five miles away, thus covering- a country of from thirty-five to forty miles in width, with the ex- treme guard of Lee's army not over five miles west of Gettysburg-, on the Chambersburg- pike. On the twenty-seventh day of June, General Hooker resigned command of our array at Frederick City, Md., for good and just reasons. Perhaps it may be well to state those reasons. You will pardon me if I do, because it is history. At that time there were ten thousand men of our army at Harper's Ferry, under command of General French. These troops had formerly be- longed to the Army of the Potomac, but General Halleck, com- mander-in-chief of our arm}' at AVashington, D. C, had detached these men, and Hooker no longer had control of them. General Hooker knew by actual covmt, through his scouts at the various Ilattte waa Ftnuiht 18 (onliuk'H wht^rv lioo criHMpd, XXw Htrrniftlt of lirc'ii nmiy Hookrr ' ' T I liiin. !

Hence, the reason why General Meade expected to make ])attle at tliat time and plju^e on the thirtietli of June. General Meade sent (ien town, and encamped for the ni^ht, picketing- all roads approachiu f;: Gettysburg-. Gam ble's brigade Eighth Illinois, Twelfth Illinois, Third Indiana, Eighth New York—occupying the Chambersburgpike, while Deven's brigade. Seventeenth Pennsylvania, Ninth New York, Sixth New York, Third West Virginia- occupied the Mummasburg road The left wing of our army con- sisted of the First, Third and Eleventh corps and Buford's di- vision of cavalry. General Rey- nolds advanced the First corps w\> the Emmittsburg road to Marsh Creek, five miles south of Gettysburg, and the Third and Eleventh corps to Emmitts- burg, ten miles south of Get- tysl)urg. In the evening Gen- n-al Meade sent the Fifth army J CO r^is across the country to Preliminary position, first (hiy. Hanover, fourteen miles south- east of Gettysl)urg, and during the night the Twelfth coit>s was^ advanced \x\^ the Baltimore i)ike to Littlestown, ten miles from Gettysburg. Now, you will observe that the advance only of our army was covering a country in width from twenty-five to thirty miles, viz: From Hanover, fourteen miles southeast, west to Ijittlestown, ten miles south ; thence west to Emmittsburg, ten miles south ; thence north to Marsh Creek, five miles south ; thence to Gi'ttysburg. Such were the movements of the troops of both armies en route to Gettysburg, and such their general positions the night before the battle began. ! - •^urtf: Hou 15 TIk' b«ttl<^ commoaoixl (^Arly in Uxo in ' 1 w .. th.'Chai ' ' • « . . . t«t<(M) 1 . il H(«U)'h iliviMiiin of infiiiitry, of Hill h i-oqtH.

He rode out the Emmittsburg- road about a mile, and met the first division of his o^\^l corps General Wadsworth's division of two brigrades. He at once turned them from the road w^estward toward Seminary Ridg-e, First Day— SituaiioJi at 11 n. in. double-quicking- them across the fields, thence north along the ridge to the Chambersburg pike, thence west a half-mile to the second ridge, which runs parallel with Seminary Ridg-e, the first brig^adc turning south and the second brigade north. The sec- ond brigade, under command of General Cutler—Fifty-sixth Pennsylvania Volunteers, Seventy-sixth New York, Ninety -fifth New York, One Hundi-ed and Forty-seventh New York, the Fourteenth Brooklyn and Seventh Indiana, was moved north across the old raihroad cut, and relieved the cavalry, which t firayahmry: iiotr Ike Unit IT ' Wttit tht'ii n>iuouiiUHl iui«l diotimI odf fnrthrr to thr riirl ' ' ' ' r,. .

The Eleventh corps line was supported bj' "^lieeler's New York, Dilger's Ohio, Heckman's Ohio and Wilkinson's Foiu'th United States batteries. You will obsers'e that the Eleventh corps is a mile north of Gettysburg, and is facing north ; the First corps on Seminary Kidge is facing west, but the Eleventh Corps does not extend far enough westward to connect with the First coq^s. A long vacant space existed, which the enemy soon took advantage^ of. In the meantime the Second division.

Colonel Smith— Thirt^'-thinl Massachusetts, One Hundred and Thirty-sixth New York, Fifty-tifth Ohio, Seventy-third Ohio, are now called on to reinforce the Eleventh corps, and a portion of Costers brig-ado is now ordered forward—the Twenty-seventh and Seventy-third Pennsylvania volunteers. It was then that General Slocum, commander of the right wing, moves forward his own corps, the Twelfth, like Napoleon of old, not waiting for marching orders. He marches to the sound of the guns. Two miles southeast of Gettysburg he leaves, the pike, and starts over the hills east of Gettysburg, but before he can reach the front the retreat takes place. You remember that Early was on the York road the nig-ht before. When he reached in sig-ht of the battle-field ho detached two brig-ades—Gordon's and Hays' and sent them across the fields westward, placing- General Gor- don in front of the rig-ht of the Eleventh corps line, and Hays' brigade on the right fiank along Rock creek, while the other two brigades continue on the Y'^ork road into Gettysburg". When General Early placed Gordon's brigade in front of General Bar- low, the right of Gordon's joined on the left of Rhodes' di^'ision, the right of Rhodes' joined on the left of Pender's and the right of Pender's joined on the left of Heath's, while Heath's right rested on the Hagerstown road, about a mile and a half southwest the toAvn. Neither of these four divisions contained less than ten thousand men. Our men were almost surrounded. They attempted to fall back. General Barlow is wounded and left on the field for dead. General Ames takes command of his division. The men become confused, and finally both the First and Eleventh corps came back, panic-stricken and demoralized, pell moll into the town from the north and from the west, only to land on the points of the bayonets of Smith's and Hoke's bri- brigades of Early's division. Then it is that we lopse nearly ' two thousand prisoners in the town, when they literally mur- dered our men, shooting them doAVTi in the streets and alleys, showing" them no mercy : when they murdered the lamented Presbyterian chaplain, Howell, of the Ninetieth Pennsylvania volunteers, at the foot of Christ's church steps, on Chambersburg" street.

The fonnation of the line of battle on the second and third day was in shape similar to a fish-hook, the short end resting on Rock Creek, a mile and a half southeast of Cemetery Hill, being the right of our line ; while the long end, resting on Eound Top, two and a half miles south of Cemetery Hill, was the left of our line ; Cemetery Hill formed the curve of the hook. The Confederate hue was a similar shape only a much larger hook, they being the outer line. On the morning of the second day our line was formed in the following order: The Twelfth corps on the right, with Williams' division on the right of the corps, in command of General Ruger, as "Williams was then in command of the corps.

Such was the fonuation on the second day. With the ai-tillery of both armies stationed on the elevated and commanding- positions, while the cavalry (the eyes of an army) are gfuardins" the Hanks, General Lee's jilan of attack on the second day was to attack both flanks and the center at one and the same time. Long-street's corps being- on hisrig-ht, facing- our left, was to advance and turn our left flank ; and Ewell's corps being-, on his left, facing our rig-ht, was to move forward and turn back our rig-ht flank, while Hill's corps would advance and strike a crushing blow on our center.

Captain liijjTlow remained out there until after our troops were driven in from his front, and U)V quite awhile without any support whatever, out of his six guns he lost four, out of seven ser«r<'ants lie lost six, of four commissioned officers he lost tliree, inchuling" hims(;lf wounded, and out of eig-hty-eight horses he lost eighty. The next troops that are se(m advancing rapidly to the lescue of the Third corps are Lockwood's Maryland Independent briprade, accomj)auied by General Meade, and some of these troops charged as far as the loop and the Peach Orchard, but, like their comrades, are hurled back by overwhelming numbers. Then it is that Creneral Hancock double-quicks tlie First division, Second army corps, to the left—four brigades, viz: .Cross', Kelly's', Zook's and Brooke. Colonel Cross commanding the Fii'st brigade, belonged to the Fifth New Hampshire regiment, and on the morning of July second he said to some of his fellow-officers: "Gentle- men, I will win a star on this field to-day orilie in the eflfort." He charged his brigade across the famous wheat field in front of Round Top, and reached the edge of the woods beyond, when he fell mortally wounded. He died in great agony during that night. He had a brother — a line officer in the same reg-iment —whom he begged of to blow out his brains or loan him his revolver that he might end his sufterings. The Second brigade was known as the Irish brigade. The chaplain was a priest, and at the edge of the wheat field he signaled to the commander, ^^'li^ General Kelly, to halt the com- mand. The command was halt- ed, and there and then the priest General Zook\% Monument. mounted a rock amidst the ter- rible storm of deadly missiles and ofi'ered a brief prayer. As the word, Amen, fell from his lips the word forward fell from the lips of Kelly, and on the Irish brigjide charged over the wheat field 33 aotl throoirh tlu* tiinlM*r iH^vond.

General Fisher's brigade was moved around east of Little Round Top and charged down the ravine between the two Round Tops, and Fisher's men fight their way foot by foot down and westward until they reach and captiu-e Devil's Den, the stronghold which the enemy had taken from the Third corps of our army.

It is then that Han- cock ag-ain comes to the rescue, by sending Carroll's brigade to reinforce our men on Cemetery Hill. Then it is that we charge and drive down the hill what is left of the Tigers. Out of the 1,700 that made the charge less than 300 g-ot back to the town. Over 1,400 were captured, killed and wounded, and their organi- zation was not known thereafter. Soon after the conflict ceased on Cemetery Hill troops were seen forming in front of Culp's Hill, which were soon learned to Ue Johnson's division preparing: to charge. Now, during' the afternoon, while our Fifth and Sixth corps are being- hurried forward, we were being hard pressed on our left. It became necessary to have reinforcements, and the result was that all troops of the Twelfth corps on our right, ex- cept one brigade, viz : Green's New York brigade, were detached and sent to reinforce our left. But in the meantime the Fifth and Sixth corps have arrived, and the Twelfth corps troops are not needed on the left. But during their absence Johnson charges Culp's Hill, but is repulsed time and again ^ith heavy loss by Green's New York brigade. But he, J olmson, having a division, his line was much longer than Green's, and the left of Johnson's line soon discovered that the works in their front were vacant. Then it is that Johnson moves ofl:' by the left flank far- ther to our right and crosses the vacant line of works and moves around the right flank of Green, and, passing Spangler's Springs, moves on westward up the ravine to the Baltimore pike, only one-fourth of a mile south of Cemetery Hill, on the east side of ' liotc Ike Itatll' 80 tlio pilcp.

Ho whs driven from the workii and thronj^di the woods beyond. That literally ended the fiprhtinp: on the rij^dit of the line, and there was a lull alon^" the entire line on the third day from 11 o'clock until 1.15 j). m., when thesiq-nal giin was tired for the artillery duel prior to Pickett's charg-e. Gen. Lee had expected Johnson to hold his position on Gulp's hill, and was g-reatly disappointed in not beinpf able to do so. If you will IKirdon me for ffoinj^' back to the second day's battle, you will observe that Lee failed in his plans. He failed to turn back our left Hank, althoujj:li he did succeed in forcing back our Third corps line until a line with the Second corps was reached. His losses were terrible. He failed to capture Round Top ; he also failed to turn our rij?ht flank ; neither did he succeed in cap- turing Gemetery Hill or Gulp's Hill. The battle lasted seven and one-half hours on our left and six and one-half hours on the right. The loss was gi-eat on both sides, but General Lee had failed to accomplish what he undertook. On the night of the 2d Gen. Lee held his great council of war, and said to his staff officers and corps commanders what he was going to do on the morrow, and how he was going to do the same. Then it was that Gen. Longstreet objected to his plan, have and said to Gen. Lee: "General, we have failed to-day ; we been unable to dislodge Meade's army. If we Avithdraw from here to-morrow moniing and move southward toward Washington we will compel Gen. Meade to vacate his stronghold aroimd the heights of Gettysburg, and in all probability we will be enabled to make battle on more favorable ground." Such was the logic of Longstreet, and I think he was right ; but Gen. Lee said, "No, gentlemen, no. I have been reinforced to-night by Pickett's division of Virginians—the flower of ray army, who have just arrived from Chambersburg, who have not yet been en- gaged in this battle, but are eager for the fray. I have also been reinforced by Stuart's cavalry." You will naturally won- der how Stuart's cavalry got to Gettysburg. As you remem- ber, Lee had left him behind in Virginia, expecting him to be able to baffle our army and prevent Gen. Hooker, who was yet in command, from following in pursuit. Stuart was noted for his successful raiding around our aimy, but Hooker out-generaled him this time, and succeeded in cutting him off' from Lee's com- again rejoin mand entirely : and, in order that Stuart might Lee's command he was compelled to move down the Potomac How the BatlU 4t b(*low wlirn* our nniiv \uu\ crtMiMol, lutil piuM U* thff rmr mm) -.-:•• ' ' ' '' W" . ]] at l>i , ..V- inir northwnnt up the Northern C«>iitnil lUilrooil. aiul bnuinir .i *' .

While Stuart's cavalry is on that tour aroimd our right flank, three and one-half miles east of Cemetery Hill, he was intercepted by General Gregg's division and General Caster's brigade of Kil Patrick's division, and then occun'ed the greatest cavalry fight of the war. It is known in history as the sabre tight. Those that were killed and wounded were wounded and killed by the sabre, as a rule. General Wade Hampton was wounded by a sabre cut by Comrade Hampton Thomas, of Philadelphia, where j'ou read in history of the cavalry charging together in the open field on the Rummel's farm, where the horses reared up into the air and rebounded many feet. The result was that Stuart was defeated by General Gregg of cm* army, and Stuart failed to carry out his part of the programme. But on the other hand, had Stuart been successful, there is no doubt in my mind whatever but that Stuart would have passed our right flank, and coming up in rear of our center, in conjunction with Pickett's charge from the front, Lee would have been successful in cutting our line in two. Therefore I contend that one of the most important features of that gi'eat battle was the cavalry fight on the third of July, three and one- half miles east of Cemetery Hill. In my opinion, had we lost the cavalry fight there we would have lost the battle at the angle.

There they were met by Webb's Phila vision had been almost annihilated ; those that had crossed the Emraittsburg- road had either been killed, woimded or captured. You could Avalk from the stone wall at the Bloody Ang-le as far M-est as the Emmittsburg- road on the dead bodies of Pickett's men without treading- on the g-roimd. In the field in front of the stone wall over six hundred of Pickett's men were buried after- wards. The Emraittsburg- roacl was so barricaded with dead that it could not be traveled for several days thereafter. Out of fif- teen field oflicers of Pickett's division tliere was but a sing-le one tlint escaped unhiu't. Pickett's men did all that mortal men could do ; they could do no more. But, fortuuatelj' for us, our country and all concerned; they met a force at the stone wall the old Second corps of our army—that was equally as brave and as fuU^' determined ; hence, it was that Lee's last and desperate eflbrt—Pickett's charg-e—failed. In the evening- of the third of July was the time that Lee, 1 >artied and beaten, backward reeled from a stubborn Meade and a barren field.

Our army having been driven from the field were compelled to leave our dead and wounded behind. The enemy 5trii)ped our dead of their uniform, hence they could not be identified after the battle as to name, regiment or state. The monu- ment stands sixty feet high, and is twenty-five feet square at the base, and is crowned with a statute representing the Genius of Lib- erty.

That was in July, sixty-liiree The very day that General Lee, The flower of Southern chivalry, Baflled and beaten, backward reeled From a stubborn Meade and a barren field. I might tell how, but the day belore, John Jiurns stood at his cottage-door. Looking down the village-street ; Where, in the shade of his peaceful vine, He heard the low of his gathered kine, And felt their breath with incense sweet Or, I might say, when the sunset burned The old farm gable, he thought it turned The milk, that fell in a liabblingllood Into the milk-pail, red as blood ; Or how he fancied the hum of bees Were bullets buzzing among the trees. But all such fanciful thoughts as these ' Were strange to a practical man like Burns, Who minded on\\ his own concerns. Troubled no more by fancies fine Than one of his calm-eyed long-tailed kine Quite old-fashioned and niatter-of-fact. Slow to argue, but quick to act. That was the reason, as some folks say, He fought so well on that terrible day. And it was terrible. On the right Raged for hours the heavy fight. Thundered the liattcry's double-bass Difhcult music for men to face ; While on the left—where now the graves Undidatc like the living waves That all the daj' imceasing swept Up to the jiits the rebels kept Round-shot ploughed the upland glades, Sown with l>ullets, reaped with blades; Shattered fences here and there Tossed their splinters in the air : ' (irilyahurri : Ihur the linlUe tea* Firtttfkt 67 t>< wn atfflpiiad and Imro . «n ul John Ituni^ llow .|.» v«»«t iMnk Ih*" m«n w««i iln —wit Alit .^i Wn^ polUr r."
