to n lucid explanation of tho causes

tion of tho positions of the Various
regiments on both sides JU3t before the

Captain Long explained that Lee was
endeavoring to reach Hnrrlsburg by n
circuitous march around the west of
South Mountain, when ho learned that
a Union nrmy corps under General
Hooker was on Its way north and had
halted at a place a few miles south of
Gettysburg.
This caused Leo to abandon his
march on Hnrrlsburg nnd by a scries
of quick manouevroB ho succeeded In
bringing the various divisions of his
nrmy by a series of forced marches
across the mountain nnd from tho
north to tho positions on all the roads
leading Into Gettysburg from the lat
ter direction.
Tho Union troops were In the mean
time rapidly advancing toward Gettys
burg from the south and on the morn
ing of July 1, 1SS3, the terrible battle
began with an engagement between
the two skirmish lines on Seminary
Ridge.
This evening's lecture will deal with
tho various phases on the second and
most eventful day of all tho fight.

tho following Friday, but was post

draped and furnishing a convenient
stage.
