Third Corps from a position of van

Gettysburg he can trace the course
Of battle of the second day where it
ragged at Round Top, Peach Orchard,
Cemetery Hill, Culp's Hill, and what
is known as The Devils Den. The
tide of battle ebbed and flowed. Lit
tie Round Top was saved from cap
ture by the timely arrival of a brigade
commanded by General Weed that
dragged the guns of United States
regular battery up to the summit by
hand.
At the end Of the second days fight
1t was found that the Southern army
had failed to break the left flank Of
the opposing forces. that it had failed
to capture Round Top and that the
right flank of the Northern army, al
! though vigorously attacked, had not
been broken. There was a tremen-
dous loss of life on both sides, and

intervention or at least foreign aid to
the Southern cause, would be forth
coming.
General Robert E. Lee late in the
spring Of 1868, made his preparations
to conduct his campaign Northward
into the state of Pennsylvania. He
had under his command three corps,
General James Longstreet command
ing the First General Richard S.
Ewell commanding the Second, and
General A. P. Hill commanding the
Third. In the Union army which aft

was ordered to make it's way into the
Susquehanna Valley through the town
of Gettysburg and then to turn in it's
course after destroying railroads and
gathering in supplies, and to meet the
Confederate commander with the main
army at Harrisburg
1t was General Jubal A. Early of
General Lees command, who reached
Gettysburg after a long hard march
on June 26. From there he went to
the town OF York and from thence to
Wrightsville. At this place he was
ordered by General Lee to retrace his
steps and to bring his detachment
back to a camp near Gettysburg.
When Early ahd obeyed Lees order
and had reached point near Gettys-
burg he found the entire Southern
force was camped within easy strik-
ing distance of the now historic town.
In the meantime things we're hap

mand in way to prevent the South
| ern general from forming junction
| with the forces Of his chief comman-
der. Lee gave over the proposed
movement on Harrisburg when he
heard of Hooker's approach and
brought the different parts of his
army together.
Four days before the Gettysburg
fight began General Hooker resigned
as commander of the Union army.
Hooker and General Hallock dis
agreed upon a matter concerning
which strategists today say that Cen
eral Hooker was right. Three days
before the battle began, that is, June
%, 1863, General George Gordan
Meade was named as General Hook
er's successor in charge of the North

went into the field and established
his headquarters at point ten Of

the morning of July 1. He dispatched
a courier to Meade saying that the
high ground above Gettysburg was
the proper place to meet the enemy.
Not lon after this message was sent
to Mea-y General Reynolds who dis
patched it, was killed. He was on
horseback near a patch Of woods with
his force confronting large detach-
ment of Confederate troops which was
coming toward them. These troops of
the enemy were dispersed by the
Union batteries and Reynolds was

at that point of the field. A brigade

field or near it, one Union regiment,

and wounded 1877 men out Of q total
of 446 in little more than quarter
Of an hours fight.
General Doubleday fell back to Sem
mary Ridge and extended his line.
The forces employed against him
here were greater than his own, and
after hard fighting Seminary Ridge
was given up. The first days battle
was in effect and in truth victory
for the Southern arms. On the night
Of July General Hancock arrived
and succeeded in rallying the Union
forces and putting new heart into the
men. General Meade on that night
ordered the entire army to Gettys-
burg.
Victory Not Followed Up.
For some reason or other perhaps
unknown to this day, what was virtu-
ally Confederate victory on the first
of July was not followed up by Gen
eral Lee early on the next morning.
General Meade therefore succeeded In
Strengthening his lines and in pre-
pairing for the greater conflict. One
end of the Union line was some dis
lance east Of Cemetery Hill ON Rock
Creek, another end was at Round Top
something more than two miles be-
yond Cemetery Hill to the south. The
Confederate line confronting it was
somewhat longer.
1t is impossible in a brief sketch of
this battle to give the names Of the
brigade and the regimental comman-
ders and the names of the regiments
which were engaged on both sides in
this great battle. Meade, Hancock,
Howard, Slocum and Sickles with
their men were confronting Lee,
.Longstreet, Hill, Ewell and the other
great commanders of the South with
their men. The line of battle with the
spaces in between the different COM
mands was nearly ten miles. 1t was
the Confederate generals intention to
attack at the extreme right and left
and at the center simultaneously. It
was to be General Longstreet's duty
to turn the left flank of the Union
army and to "break it," Longstreet's
intended movement was discovered in
time to have it met valiantly. The
battle of the second day really be-
gan with Longstreet's advance. The

diers. It was soon over and Pickett's-
charge, glorious for all time in his
tory, was a failure in that which It
attempted to do, but was a success as,

lean soldiers
The losses at Gettysburg on both
sides we're enormous. The Union
army lost Generals Zook, Farnsworth,
Weed and Reynolds, killed; while Gra-
ham, Barnes, Gibbon, Warren, Double
day, Barlow, Sickles, Butterfeld and
Hancock were wounded. The total
casualties killed wounded, captured
or missing on the Union side NUM-
bered nearly $4,000 men. On the Con-
federate side Generals Se1nmes, Pen"
der, Garnet, Armistead. and Banks"
dale were killed, and Generals Kemp

Trimble we're wounded. The entire
Confederate loss is estimated to nave
been nearly 10000 men.

HERMAN THE0. HICKOK
DIES IN BELLEVILLE
Was Noted in Educational and
Literary Circles.

Herman Theodore Hickoll, Il years
old, of 200 Greylock avenue, Belleville,
died yesterday at his home. Mr..
HiclSok never fully recovered from
the effects of an operation undergone
q year ago, and this coupled with the
effects of old age is given as the
cause for his death. The deceased
was born in Castleton. Vt, and was
graduated from Union College. Sche-
nectady, n. Y. After his graduation
he spent the next thirty years in
teaching in private schools in the
East. He then went to Michigan

1866 and became principal of the
Martins Academy at Martins, n. Y.
In 1867 he was married to Miss
Alice A. Hall. at Saratoga Springs,

GRUB FIRES BACK
AT HIS ACCUSERS
Petty Envy, He Says, Inspired
Charges Against Management
of kearny Home.

Concerning the charges made against
him by former Congressman R.
Wayne Parker to the Joint commit
tee of the Senate and Assembly, now
investigating the manner in which
the New Jersey Home for Disabled
Soldiers at Kearny is conducted,
General f. Burd Grubb, former min
lister to Spain and superintendent of
the Kearny institution, has made the
following statement:
IT haven't shot any of my ammu-
milton yet and there's a lot in my
canisters. The charges are the re-
suit of petty envy and I'm not wor-
ried about them. When President
Wilson was Governor he knew every
thing that was done in the home for
the two years | have been here, and
he approved of the work of its super
intendent. We have now 504 veterans
here, as large body as we have ever
cared for. 1t is true that the expenses
have gone up since 1908. but the price
of living has gone up all over the
country, and | guess we are not a
startling exception.
You must remember that every
item of expense here has to be ap-
proved by the board of managers be-
fore it goes to the State comptroller
to be paid. II has to have the APP
proYal of the very men who are now
accusing me of extravaganza. All
the food for the four messes. for the
mems mess, for the officers mess.
for the nurses and my own is bought
by advertised contracts and a report
is made. We are supported partly by
the government and partly by the
State. and have to make a report
to the government every ten days
and also have TO make reports about
every cent to the State. I'm not a
bit afraid of any investigation which
Mr.. Parker may choose to get up.
It's high time that the board Of this
home was appointed by the Cover
nor, as are the boards of other homes
throughout the State, and il doesn't
by any means follow that all the
members of the present board will
lose their positions under this new
system"
Mr.. Parker is president of the board
of managers of the home The board
is fighting hard to prevent the
passage of a bill introduced by AS
semblyman Joseph NJ Branegan, of
Harrison, and which provides that
the present board cease office with
the passage of the bill and a new
board be appointed by the governor
1t has been openly charged by mem
beers Of the board that General Grubb
is responsible for the presentation OF
the measure, which has alrea dy
passed the lower house. II is being
held up awaiting the outcome of the
present investigation.
