f its hard serH ice Just before and
during the battle of Gettysburg. On
that long, hard 5aarch to reach Gettys-
burg Mr.. Stewar5 kept up with his
company, although on the last two
nights of that march when the last
halt was finally called some of the
ompanies had cnlv four or five men,
he others being strung out for 10
miles, utterly exhausted. Practically
al of them would catch up, however,

At Catlett' 5 Station Mr.. Stewart

upon them was made and again they
were driven off. The company hurried
to the relief of the outpost and the
colonel after looking over the field in

the result of their defense highly com

Mr.. Stewart : story of the long
march to Gettysburg is similar to others
