A. Homer Ryington proprietor of The Norwak
Comm Gazette" is at the request Of large num-
Der OF acquaintances engaged in writing series
OF interesting letters for publication In his paper.
entitled "Recollections OF "A War Correspondent"
Mr.. BylngtOn was "A correspondents OF The Tribune
in the field. and in addition TO other news In al
vance OF other papers his report OF the first days
fight at Gettysburg practically beat" FOR
The Tribune. lie was enabled to do this by his ac-
cdental provisional discovery Of telegraph line
at Hanover. and The Tribunes report was the big
gest beat any newspaper had during all the war
even the first news the Goyernn ent got was from
The Tribune's dispatches. After the scene had
closed In about Cups Hill and Cemetery Ridge Mr.
Byngton rode rapidly to Ittlestown. where he put
his horse 10 a buggy and then drove 10 his tele-
graph station at Hanover, which he reached Just
before o'clock. In ha.f hour afterward the re-
port OF Gettysburgs first day was In The Tribune
office and by 10 o'clock extras OF the paper were
selling In the streets People rose from their beds
at midnight at the cry of Extra Tribune al abou,
a great battle" and went out to buy paper. Be

Mr. Byington says OF this one instance: The only
paper other than The Tribune which put forth ex-
traordnary efforts 10 get the earliest tdings from
the seat OF war was The Herald. The Army
manager for that entorprsing paper had at great
arranged horses
ten miles between Gettysburg and Baltimore which
messengers were to ride at the utmost speed 10 the
special or T. O. j. Smith telegraph line. and FOR
the exclusive press use OF which The Herald was
under contract to pay $1,000 per day. The Herald
reporters thus got their news down Baltimore in
remarkably quick time and ahead of every COM
petitor except The Tribune, but only In for
the regular Thursday morning edition OF their
paper; The Tribune had received and published 1t
al the night before"
