~ v VASH1NGTON-lt is posi-
AH BILE, some people would say
probable, that the Battle of
~ Gettysburg changed utterly
the course of American his
tory. 1t was great fight between
armies of Americans, for probably
fully ninety per cent. of the men who
fought on the two sides were born
natives to the American soil. The
bravery shown at Gettysburg was of
the order which Americans have
shown on every field and which re-
fleets credit upon the hardy and
heroic ancestry of the men engaged,
no matter from what race they may
have sprung.
At Gettysburg there was nothing to
choose between the valor of the North
and the South. The South lost the
fight, but it lost it honorably and
with the prestige Of it's soldiery un-
dimmed. The charges made on that
field have gone down into history as
assaults made under conditions which
every man felt might mean death at
the end. The defenses made at Gettys-
burg were of the kind which it takes
iron in the blood to make perfect. At
Gettysburg Northerners and South
erners replenished their store of re-
spect for their antagonists. The bat
tie marked the high tide of the war
between the states. After it the
South largely was on the defensive,
but it's defense was maintained with
fortitude and in the face of privations
which could not chill the blood of
men lighting for what they thought
was the right
The Northern armies were persis-
tent in their attacks through the cam
paigns which after few months were
started aginst the objective point,
Richmond. Brave p IN here and brave
men there, and afte.: the end came it
was the qualities which keep COM
pany with bravery which made the
soldiers of the North and South so
ready to forget and to forgive and to
work again for the good Of a COM
mon country.
The great battle of Charlottesville
was fought not long before the oppos-
ing Union and Confederate forces met
on the field of Gettysburg. Chancel-
louisville was a Confederate victory.
The Southern government believed
that the victory should be followed up
by an invasion Of the North for, &C
cording to it's reasoning, if an import
ant engagement could be won upon

Iand from Invasion, a condition which,
military men say always adds a sub
tie something to the fighting quality
which is in any man. Some authori-
ties have said that there were 100000
men in the Confederate forces at Get
tysburg to be confronted by 10000
Union troops. Another authority says
that the Confederate force was $4,000
and the Union force $4,000. AS it was
the armies were pretty nearly equally
divided in strength.
In June, 1868, General Robert e.
Lee began to move northward. Lee
concentrated his army at Winchester,
va, and then started for the Potomac
river, which he crossed to reach the
state of Maryland. He fully expected
to be followed by General Hooker's
army and so General Stuart with
large force of cavalry was ordered by
Lee to keep in front of Hooker's army
and to check his pursuit of the Con-
federates if it was attempted.
Late in June the Confederate force
reached Hagerstown, in the state of
Maryland. It was General Lees in
tention to strike Harrisburg, Pa,
which was a great railroad center
and city where Union armies we're
recruited and from which all kinds of
supplies were sent out to the soldiers

It was General Jubal A. Early of
General Lees command, who reached
Gettysburg after 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

Lee with his force had advanced

battle, but there it was that the two

three days struggled for the mas

On the last day of June, the day

began, General Reynolds, a corps
commander Of the Union army, went
forward to feel out the enemy. He
reached Gettysburg by nightfall. His
corps, the First, together with the
Third and the Eleventh Infantry
Corps with a division of cavalry, com.
posed the Union army's left wing.
The Fifth Army Corps was sent to
Hanover, southeast Of Gettysburg,

Not long after this message was sent

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.

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.

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, Ewel 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. It 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

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

Ewell commanding the Second and
General A. P. Hill commanding the
Third. In the Union army which aft

there were seven corps, but the mum.

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 success as
helping to show the heroism of Amer

sides were enormous. The Union
