After the' bloody battle of July l, 2 and 3, 1863, the forces of the Confederacy were generally on the defensive. Lees invasion of the north, undertaken In the hope that It would bring foreign aid to tbe southern cause, was brought to sudden and disastrous end. General Lees army at Gettysburg numbered approximately 84.000, while the Federal forcea, under command of Gen. George G. Meade, aggregated about 80,000 officers and men, Lees corps commanders ' were General Longstreet, Ewell and A. P. Hill. Commanders of the Union corps were Generals John F. Reynolds, W. 8. Hancock. D, E. Sickles, Sykes, Sedgwick. O. Howard and Slocum. Reynolds, sent ahead to feel out tbe enemy, arrived at Gettysburg the evening of June 31, and In the fighting which began early the next day, waa killed. Gen. Abner Doubleday, who succeeded him," was forced back to Seminary Ridge, after hard fighting, and then had to abandon that position, so that the first day of the battle was in reality a Confederate victory.That night Meade ordered Union, army to Gettysburg, and by next morning the two armies were e confronting each .other along a line of battle. Lee ordered Longstreet to turn the left flank of the Federal army by taking Little Round Top, but Sickles defended that position so stubbornly that Longstreefa movement was checked. Peach Orchard, Cemetery Hill, Culp's Hill and The Devils Den were tbe scenes of desperate fighting, and Little Round Top was savedT to the Federal by the arrival of a brigade under General Weed. Hla men dragged the guns of a battery to the summit by hand. Tbe third day opened with a wonderful artillery duel, the greatest of the entire war, and then came Picketts charge, which has gone into history as one of the most heroic assaults of all time. sThe men of This picture shows a view from Little ' Round Top, looking Picketts division formed in brigade wheat field where the second days battle fiercely surged. man hml occasion to ship a mule He Bent by rail to another county. the animal to the station in the care When the freight was of a darkey. put on the car the darkey looked through tbe bars and saw that the mule was eating tbe tag upon which his destination waa marked.
