 'T IS 2s OT our jvarpose or desire to publish 
 in this volume any extended or graphic 
 account of the vvorld-famed Battle of Gettysburg. 
 The record of that terrible carnage has long since 
 found a fitting place u]ion the pages of American history. 
 In the annals of warfare the battle of Gettysburg is justly 
 termed " the greatest conflirt of modern times." The name 
 of Gettysburg has been brought froni rural obscurity to 
 world-wide celeljrity. The battle was equal in magnitude, 
 desperation, liuman slaughter, and in the vast interests which coidd 
 be decided only by the result, to any recorded in history. 
 
 The heroism of the American soldier has won (as it so well de- 
 served,) tlie applause and admiration of the world. Xow in the 
 days of tranquil peace, with our country united, prosperous and 
 wonderfully progressive, we are a nation of patriotic citizens. It 
 is that same patriotism that prompts and encourages us to visit the 
 scenes and localities now dedicated and consecrated to the perpetua- 
 tion of American valor, there to do homage to the memory of our 
 fallen kindred of the "blue" or the "grey," who, inspired by an 
 intuitive sense of duty, sacrificed all — home, friends, position and 
 life itself — in defense of the cause they thought was right. Let 
 not one thought or bitter prejudice suggest the i)assions of that 
 awful conflict. The Avar is over, and with it should terminate every 
 semblance of hatred and every recollection of individual sacrifice. 
 Therein exists the evidence of true patriotism, without which the 
 soldier's valor must be devoid of earnestness and manly courage. 
 
 Peace reigns supreme, and now in friendship true, 
 United are the " boj-s " who wore the grey and blue. 
 Each valiant hero of that sturdy fight 
 Fought nobly for the cause he thought was right.

 In the C()nij)iluti(in of tlii.s volun.c \\( have nitulc a curei'nl 
 research of the works ol' the ln'st autlioriiius, ami likewise ri'ceived 
 official inl\)niuition from the War l><'|»artiin'iit at A\'as]iingtoii. We 
 are not historians. In thai ])oi-ii(iii of oiii- work ri'fci-i-iii,y to the 
 Battle of Gettysburg it i.s oiii- desire to present in brief and con- 
 densed form sucli informaLion as will likely })rove interesting to 
 expectant visitors to the ])attlefield. How to reach the locality of 
 the famous three-days' liglit is a question which necessarily concerns 
 the traveler, by whom the guarantee of comfort and convenience i3 
 always earnestly considered. This question Avas solved by the AYest- 
 ern Maryland IJailroad in the completion of the Gettysburg Short 
 Line (Tape-Worm JRailroad) in the Spring of 188!). The new road 
 opens a short, direct and ])anoramic route to the battlefield from 
 points West, South and Southwest, via Hagerstown. From Phila- 
 delphia and Washington the Western Maryland lioute, via Balti- 
 more and Emory Grove, is too well known to retjiiire elaborate 
 comment. The entire ride presents a changeful series of nature's- 
 most enchanting pictures. 
 
 If in the publication of this little work we succeed in intelli- 
 gently demonstrating the advantages and conveniences of the two 
 routes to the Battlefield of Gettysburg as offered ])y the Western 
 Maryland l^ailroad, then our sole ])urpose shall have be(^n attained.

 ETTYSBURG IS pleasantly situated at the base 
 of South Mountain, in a fertile plain be- 
 tween the ridges of Cemetery Hill on the south- 
 h ^^^L li '^^■^st 4nd Seminary Ridge on the west, and is sur- 
 rounded ]jy a cluster of low hills forming the 
 ^^«j background to a Ijroad expanse of rich valleys 
 teeming with cultivation. Its geographical posi- 
 tion is about seven miles north of the State line 
 dividing Maryland and Pennsvlvania. The site 
 of Gettysburg, Adams County, Pennsylvania, was 
 originally located by thrifty German colonists in 
 1 779, (just three years following the declaration 
 of American independence). The town was 
 founded by James Getty in 1780, became the 
 county-seat in 1800, and was incorporated in 1807. 
 The population of Gettysburg at the time of the 
 battle was about 1500 inhabitants. 
 
 In the early Spring of 1863, the question of invasion, if con- 
 sidered at all, was deemed most improbable. It must be remem- 
 bered that battlefields are not selected by choice or favor. Various 
 iind sometimes unexplainable circumstances and conditions lead 
 contending armies to wage disastrous warfare Avhen and where 
 least expected. Gettysburg, however, may be justly considered an 
 exception, for the direct causes which led to the culmination of 
 the great battle were not only anticipated within reasonable time 
 for preparation and resistance, but a conflict itself must naturally 
 have been expected in that vicinity by reason of the advance of 
 the Confederates bevond the boundary of Mason and Dixon's line.

 \ I /he question is often asked by tlie visitor to tlie buttlefielJ liow 
 &j^ was it possible to gather and concetitrate the strength of 
 two great armies in the vicinity of Gettysburg within such a 
 limited time? How was it accomplished? In order to intelligently 
 comprehend the one important fact bearing upon this (piesticn, the 
 reader has but to remember tliat the Army of Xorthern Virginia, 
 commanded by Gen. Lee, was marching northward for the purpose 
 of invading Pennsylvania. It was the one great ambition of Lee's 
 life that the final result of the issue should be decided upon Xorth- 
 ern soil. The South had already suffered terrible devastation, and 
 it was deemed expedient that hostilities should cease, at least 
 temporarily, in Southern territory. 
 
 In the latter part of the niontli of June, 1S63, after the 
 battle of C'hancellorsville, Lee's army crossed the Potomac river. 
 The forces were divided into three corps, commanded hj Gens. 
 Ewell, Hill and Longstreet. The advance continued up the 
 Cumberland Valley, a portion of the command proceeding to a 
 point on the Susquehanna opposite Harrisburg. Another di- 
 vision, commanded l)y Gen. Early, had iu tlie meantime reached 
 Chambersburg after a tedious and hazardous march. This di- 
 vision crossed the South Mountain, and arrived near Gettys- 
 burg on the morning of June 2(5th, 18(Jo. Early's })roject 
 was to join the forces of Lee, then gathered on the banks of 
 the Susquehanna. AVith tliis determination. Gen. Early ad- 
 vanced his troops northward, jjroceeded to York, and con- 
 tinuing his advance, attemjited to cross the Susquehanu;i, at 
 Wrightsville, but Avas frustrated by the Federals burning the

]()im bridge coniit'cting Wriglitsvilk- uixl ('(iluml)iu. fJcnerul 
 Let- iK'ing tints ;»]»])ris(Ml of tlie ra])id advunoc of the Cnion forces, 
 withdrew his (•ominaiid and jiroceeded soutliward. It was at this 
 time that (ieii. Lee h-anied that liis eo-o])cration with Kiehiiioiid 
 was iiilereeptetl : ill iH'taliation lie resolved tcj unite his forces and 
 threaten Ikiltiinon'. Concentrating his entire command at (Jettvs- 
 Iniru", lu' decided to move southward without delay. This movement 
 of tlu' Army of Northern ^'irginia was entirely unexpected by the 
 Federal forces. Gen. Meade supposed the army of Lee to be concen- 
 trated at the vicinity of Harrisburg and along the ^^usquehanna. 
 To check its further advance, he spread out his command to cover a 
 sweeping stretch of territory, and in this position marched onward 
 toward the river. The futility of the movement can readily l)e un- 
 derstood, foi- whilst the Federal forces Mere gradually becoming 
 scattered and separated, the Confederate commands were gathering 
 in strength in the vicinity of Gettysburg. AVe shall now follow the 
 course of the Union army in its pursuit of Lee's command after 
 the battle of ( 'hancellorsville. 
 
 The advance of the Federal forces toward the field of Gettys- 
 burg, from June ^Gth to July 1st, LS63, was mainly to oppose the 
 invasion of Lee's army, which had already reached the borders of 
 Pennsvlvania. The approach to Gettysburg of the various brigades, 
 divisions and corps as here exiilained are similarly described in the 
 official reports of the Adjutant General's Department, compiled 
 under the direction of Brigadier General Eichard C. Drum and 
 l)ublished in the records of the Gettysburg campaign.

 JULY 1ST, 1863. 
 
 THE BATTLE IS INAUGURATED AT 9 A. M. BY AN ENGAGEMENT ON SEMINARY RIDGE. BETWEEN 
 
 BUFORD'S CAVALRY AND HETH'S DIVISION OF HILL'S CORPS — THE DEATH OF GENERAL 
 
 REYNOLDS— THE CONFEDERATES OCCUPY GETTYSBURG— THE FEDERAL FORCES ARE 
 
 REPULSED AND RETIRE TO CEMETERY HILL— THE BATTLE CONTINUES NEARLY

 (TTs STATED in the introductory of this little work, it is not our 
 /iX purpose or desire to present in these pages a, detailed account 
 of the great Battle of Gettysburg. We have sifted and in- 
 vestigated a vast accumulation of data, selecting the jiith and sub- 
 stance of facts likely to prove interesting to the reader, who has 
 neither ])atience nor inclination to delve into an elaboration of war 
 history. As our research has been careful, precise and complete, 
 we feel justified in claiming that the information herein j^resented 
 is authentic ; if not, then the true history of that awful battle has 
 yet to be written. 
 
 The determination of Lee to threaten Baltimore was thwarted. 
 The progress of his army was practically impossible without en- 
 countering the Union forces. In the early morning of July 1st, 
 (ieneral Hill, following the course of Early, advanced toward the 
 low ridges about two miles north and Avest of Gettvsburg, and there 
 met Buford's f'avalry j)0sted in a commanding i)osition on the low 
 iiills and in the fields adjacent the Chambersburg road bevond 
 tSeminary Kidge. Buford's skirmish line extended from the inter- 
 
— 15 — 
 
 section of Millerstown road and Willoughby Run, thence on the 
 left bank of that stream crossing- Mnmniasburg, Carlisle and Plar- 
 risburg jikes. The positions thus occupied ]iractically covered all 
 l)oints of the enemy's approach. The guns of Buford's light bat- 
 teries were planted to cover the roads likely to be used in the first 
 advance of the Confederates. It was Heth's Division of Hill's 
 Corps that opened the attack. The great Battle of Gettysburg Avas 
 inaugurated. A sharp and determined skirmish fire had been main- 
 tained for nearly an hour, when Heth's Division was reinforced by 
 the ai'rival of artillery, which at once opened lire on Buford's bat- 
 teries. The combat raged Avith terrific earnestness. The shrieking 
 shot, the bursting shell and the deafening boom of the great guns 
 added consternation and ten'or to the awful scene. The situation 
 was desperate. Buford's gallant command was greatly outnumbered 
 at tlie beginning of the conflict ; he anxiously awaited reinforce- 
 ments, without which a crisis would soon ensue. Gen. Reynolds, 
 away in advance of his corps, brought the encouraging assurance to 
 Buford that aid would soon be given. He directed Buford to main- 
 tain his position, and determined to concentrate the entire right 
 wing of the army at the scene of the contest. Cutler's Brigade of 
 Wadsworth's Division, (First Corps), led the advance in the rein- 
 forcement of Buford's Cavalry. The 76th and 147th New York 
 and the 56th Pennsylvania went with Wadsworth to the right of the 
 Confederate line and north of the old Tape-Worim Railroad.* 
 The 14:th Brooklyn and the 95th New York, together with Hall's 
 Maine Battery, occupied a position south of the Tape- Worm Rail- 
 road grading. The battery was located on the Chambersburg pike. 
 The infantry of Cutler's Brigade at once engaged in action. Gen. 
 Doubleday, with the remaining regiments of the First Corps, 
 arrived upon the scene and checked the advance of the Confederate 
 lines on the Fairfield and Hagerstown roads. The Ii*on Brigade, 
 commanded by Col. Morrow, of the 21:th Michigan, attacked the 
 Confederate force of Archer's Brigade, Third Corps. This attack 
 had scarcely commenced when the 2d Wisconsin, under Col. Fair- 
 
 *Now the Western Maryland's "Gettysburg Shout Line."

 Gen. I ><iiihled,iv now assumed conuiiand. Cutler's Brigade 
 had been forced Ijack toward Gettysburg. Their retreat was 
 checked by the prompt action of Doul»leday, who sent reinforce- 
 ments to engage the enemy. At noon a lull in the battle occurred. 
 It was a welcome relief. Hetli reorganized his sliattered forces. 
 The Federals were reinforced by Pender's Division and two divi- 
 sions of tlie First Corps, under Eowley and Eobinson. The battle 
 again commenced Avith renewed determination on both sides. The 
 Confederates were soon encouraged by the arrival of Ewell witli 
 Stonewall dackson's veterans. The veterans secretly occupied every 
 available position not directly exposed to the Union line. When, 
 however, the effects of their telling fire revealed their hiding places, 
 Devin's Cavalry drove them temporarily from their stronghold. At 
 1 P. M. Gen. Howard arrived upon the field and took command, 
 relieving Gen. Doubleday. Vigorous and repeated assaults were made 
 against the First and Eleventh Corps by Gens. Ewell and Hill, whose 
 united commands numbered about 50,000. The Union forces were 
 driven back toward (rettysburg. The retreat Avas orderly and delib- 
 erate, until the town was reached, but once Avithin the narroAV con- 
 fines of the streets the rapid fire of the Confederate batteries dealt 
 terrible destruction, especially in the rear of the retreating Federals. 
 Confusion jirevailed, over 1,200 Federals Avere made prisoners i)i less 
 than half an hour. All Avho escaped took u]) a strong position on 
 Cemetery Hill. The Confederates occupied the tOAvn. Thus ended 
 the battle of July 1st, 1863. 
 
 The results of the first day's battle may Ije briefiy sunnned up

 "Oh God of Battles, steel my soldiers" hearts; 
 Strike them not with fear, Oh Lord ; 
 Xot to-day, not to-day." 
 
 T~\IGHT on the Icittlelield — ;i sultry night, ;i night of dreadful 
 X/ anticipation, a few hours respite from niad and thundering 
 sounds of war, that tell the story of death and desolation. 
 AVorn and weary the vast legions of two great armies rest from the 
 exhausting conflict of the day. Comrades utter tlieir last good-bye ; 
 hands are clasped in token of kindred sympathy, and soldier hearts 
 res])ond to sentiments of loyalty and comradeship. AVho among- 
 them will be missing, who will be absent when roll is 
 called after to-morrow's carnage? The one earnest 
 hope, the one universal desire silently cherished by 
 many and openly asserted by tliousands is, that the 
 conflict of the second day would jorove decisive. The 
 silence of night is frequently broken by the echoing 
 notes of deliant war songs — at intervals the sharp 
 ciMck of a rifle is heard vibrating through the 
 hills — and thus through the fitful hottrs the con- 
 tending forces await the dawn of day. General 
 Meade reached the battlefield at 1 A. M., and at 
 ^^^ once proceeded to investigate the positions 
 of his troops. The Eleventh Corps

 Tlu' suddenness of this attack dazed the Confederates. For a.

 their former [)osition. Whilst tlu' coidlict Avas raging from Peach

 a movement to take possession of Little Roitnd Top, which at 
 this time was not occujiied. The commanding position of the 
 Round 'Tops was in itself a key to the entire line of action, a 
 stronghold well worth a des}K'rate effort to possess. This fact had

 Confederate forces in the valley. The Fedci-als ai-e repulsed. In

 it seems that Southern valor Avill gain the heights. Again they rush 
 toward the hill-side. The front i-anks have just reached the ravine,

 and remorseless fire is poured upon tlie dismayed Confederates, 
 They cannot Avithstand the mighty storm of fire and lead. Volley 
 after vollev is directed at short range into their very bosoms, but 
 with courage Avorthy even of an enemy's admiration, they continue 
 to climb the slope. CraAvford now gives his men the command 
 to charge. Such desperate opposition is beyond the limit of mortal 
 resistance. The Reserves rush doAvn the hill Avith Avild and im- 
 ])etuous force, their glistening bayonets dealing death and destruc- 
 tion in the ranks of the now demoralized enemy. The Confederates 
 are routed, and Ronnd To}) is saved. In the meantime, Longstreet 
 has prepared for a final attack on the left of the Union line. With

 thev rushed into the very midst (d' the Federal batteries, spiking 
 the guns and engaging in hand to hand conflict with their oppo- 
 nents. Tlie contest is brief l)ut ivplete with desi)eration. Every 
 inch of ^a-ound is disputed with maddened fury. The hill top 
 is surmounted bv Kiekett's and \\edriek's batteries. To the right^ 
 on an elevation that is practically the beginning of Culp's Hill, 
 was i)lanted Stevens' Bettery. 'Jdie " Fouisiana Tigers'' were first 
 stihiected to a raking fire from the guns of these condjined bat- 
 teries, vet through it all the "Tigers" kept onward, filling up the 
 gaps caused 1)V the frightful slaughter of their comrades. The fame 
 of the "Louisiana Tigers" existed in their ])ast record; success 
 had never failed them. This was the hour of their greatest trial; 
 they were facing the test of death and could not falter. They 
 reached the heights. Leaping over the stone walls, the "Tigers'* 
 seize the guns, confusion and bedlam ])revails whilst the fight con- 
 tinues. The men at the guns are fairly overpowered by the de- 
 moniac fury of their assailants. Just at the moment when victory 
 for the "Tigers" seemed certain, the men of Carroll's Brigade 
 reinforce the Federal position, and rush with determination u})on 
 the almost exhausted Confederates, who unable to coi)i' with the 
 odds now against them, lose courage and retreat, whilst the Ijat- 
 teries again open a deadly fire upon them. The organization of the

 A greater portion of tlie Tnioii force had ])eeii withdrawn from 
 Cuip'.s Hill to aid in the reinforcement of Sickles. An onslaught 
 uj)Oii this stronghold is made by Johnson's Division, and after a 
 stubborn resistance he succeeds in capturing the works. Owing to 
 the darkness, which ])roved a welcome ivlief io both ai-nues, the 
 importance of the ])osition Johnson hud uttuined could not fully 
 be realized. He therefore decided to uwait the dawn of day liefore 
 advuncing. The battle of the second day is ended. The Con- 
 federates huve not achieved the results that might Inne been 
 expected from such vast sacritices. They have, however, gained 
 decided advantages on the left of the line of battle, and Lee is en- 
 couraged to force the attack. The position of ^leade is critical. 
 His losses are frightful to contemplate. Twenty-two thousand 
 killed and wounded have seriously depleted the rank and tile of the 
 Union Army, yet the fight must be continued at least another day, 
 and so the preparations progress throughout the night for the final 
 scenes, the deciding events of the mighty struggle on the tield of 
 Oettvsburg.

 JULY 3d, 1863. 
 
 AN EARLY MORNING ATTACK BY THE FEDERALS — REPULSE OF THE CONFEDERATES — CAPTURE OF 
 
 GULP'S HILL — AN ATT/\CK ON THE CONFEDERATE TRAINS" AN ARTILLERY CONFLICT— 
 
 THE FAMOUS CHARGE OF GEN. PICKETT— DEFEAT OF THE CONFEDERATE 
 
 FORCES — TERMINATION OF THE BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG. 
 
 X I fHE first ray of early dawn luul scarcely lightened the shadows 
 &J^ of night ere the conflict of the third day is commenced. The 
 great fight had already waged with bitter determination and 
 defiance. Desolation reigned supreme. The battlefield for miles 
 snrronnding the war-ridden village of Gettys])nrg Avas strewn Avith 
 the dead and A\onnded of either army, and mingled Avith the groans 
 of the dying could be heard the exultant shout of sturdy warriors 
 who, eA'en in the heat and passion of battle, seemed eager for the 
 conflict to be decided on this the third day of carnage and death. 
 The sacrifice had l)een frightful to contemplate. Gen. ^Meade 
 doubted the expediency of continuing the battle, fearing that 
 another day of slaughter such as had terminated Avith the contest 
 of the second day might witness the annihilation of his valorous 
 soldiers. He, however, reluctantly decides that the light nuist be 
 continued, and so the hours of night and early morning are engaged 
 in i)reparing for the final struggle. The strength of both armies is 
 carefully estimated, and the importance of every position occupied 
 by either side on the night of July 2d is duly considered as a pre-

 liiuiiiaiN iiirasnif to tlic rniewal nl tliL- conibiit. 'J'he weak jjoiiits 
 are strengtluiicd and the liiu'S <>(' battle changed to meet tlie possi- 
 ble and exi)ected emergencies of the third day's fight. In tlie early 
 morning the Confederate forces moved toward Gulp's Hill, to which 
 })oint the divisions of TJeary and linger had previously been ordered. 
 CJearv took his ])osition on (ireene's right, whilst liuger concentrated 
 his force in the rear of Johnson. The march of the Confederates 
 was intercepted by Ceary, and an engagement at once ensued. This 
 served as a signal that the battle had commenced, and directed the 
 attention of the Federal artillery, which blazed into the enemy's 
 lines with sucli relentless vigor that the Confederates were unable 
 to place their batteries in any position from which an effective re- 
 sponse could be given. The Federal infantry tired with great effec- 
 tiveness, and for a time the Southerners seemed bewildered by the 
 situation. They charge the enemy with valorous determination, but 
 being surrounded and practically hemmed in by a raking fire of 
 grape and canister, they resort to a hand-to-hand conflict with the 
 Union troops, thereby placing them in equally hazardous positions. 
 
 The day advances, and the intense heat of the sun overpowers 
 many of the combatants. It was in this dreadful struggle that the 
 veteran command of Gen. Stonewall Jackson made a desperate but 
 fruitless charge upon Kane's Brigade of Geary's Division. At 8 A. 
 M. a brief cessation of hostilities ensued. The" lull in the battle 
 enabled Johnson to realize the futility of further resistance at that 
 point. The men of Geary's Divi&ion with renewed vigor again 
 charge the Confederate lines. Step by step Johnson yields his posi- 
 tion. AVith a mighty yell of victory the Union forces again occupy 
 the breastworks of Gulp's Hill, and the attempt to turn the Federal 
 right was practically ended. 
 
 Thwarted at the left, repulsed at the right, Lee has but one 
 more chance, viz : to penetrate the centre of the Union lines ; either 
 he must achieve victory at that point or withdraw his army in re- 
 treat and defeat. This last and vital move must decide the issues 
 of the battle and turn the tide of victory for or against the valorous 
 Commander of the Confederacy.

 lines. Tlie forces of T.ongstreet, I Food and McLaws have suf- 
 fered such disastrous losses that tliey are in no condition to su])j)ort 
 the contemphited t-liarge. Lee tlierefore determines to aid the at- 
 tack by concentrating his avaiUihle troops on each liank of Pickett's 
 Division wlien tlie charge is made. The Divisioii is formed in two 
 distiiK t lines, with Garnett and Kenii)er i)i the lead. su})ported by 
 Armistead, with Perry and AVih'ox on liis riglit. Heth's Division,

 The intended assault is not approved by Longstreet. m ho holds a 
 conference w'itli Lee. The Confederate Commander will not alter 
 liis determination to make this one grand and final etibrt. His 
 plans are perfected, and the artillery is given the command to 
 "clear the way." The Confederati' batteries are jiosted in position, 
 forming a semi-circular line extending from the peach orchard to a 
 point east of the Emmitsburg road, Avithiu easy and sweeping 
 range of the Union line. This detachment of artillery is com- 
 manded by Colonel Alexander. On the right of the peach orchard. 
 are located the batteries of Major Henry. The Washington Artil- 
 lery, with the battalions of Cabell and Hearing, occupy a position to 
 the right of Alexander's Batteries. The artillery supporting- the 
 Union line on tlie right Avas planted on Cemetery Hill, and consisted 
 of the batteries of Eicketts, Digler, Bancroft, AViedrick, Eakin, Hill, 
 Taft and AVheeler, all nnder the command of ]\rajor Osborn. On

 (lie li'fl of tlic Federal line the batteries of Thompson, Phillips, 
 llarl, 'I'lioiiias Sterlill<_^ ('oo])er Ames, Dow and Iioch were located, 
 and extending from the south of Ziegler's Grove and fronting Gen- 
 eral :Vleade*s ]ieud(|uarter8 were the batteries of Gushing, Brown, 
 Woodruff. Arnold and IJorty. directed ])y Major McGilvery. The 
 heio-hts of Little Hound Toii were held li\ IJittenhouse and (4ibbs. 
 The supjiort of ilic batteries comprised Robinson's division of the 
 First Corps, located at Ziegler's Grove, reinforced on the left by- 
 Don bleday's Division of th.e First and Hay's and Gibbons' Divisions 
 of the Second Corps. The extreme left of the Federal lines was 
 ])rotected by i)ortions of the Third, Fifth and Sixth Corps, and 
 Caldwell of the Second. Several liouis had thus been occupied in 
 ])rei)aration for the Una! attack — a earnage that Avas to decide the 
 result of the great battle. It* was near ] P. M. when Longstreet, 
 with great reluctanee, sent his messenger to Colonel Walton with 
 instructions to lire tlie signal gun. In jjrompt res])onse the Wash- 
 ington Artillei-y on the right fired two shots. The signal was un- 
 derstood by both armies. The vil)rating echoes had scarcely died 
 awav when the entire ('onfederate line of one hundred and thirty- 
 eight cannon Itlazed with the thunders of war, and send their mes- 
 sengers of shot and shell sweeping toward the P'ederal lines. The 
 Union batteries did not respond Avith the promptness anticipated by 
 the Confederates. Fifteen minutes elapsed, during Avhich time 
 Ger. Hunt made a careful survey of the jtosition of the enemy's 
 batteries, u})on Avhicli he desires to concentrate the most effectiA'a 
 tire. NoA\- the Federal batteries open upon the Confederate lines. 
 Two hundred guns are sending forth their missiles of death. The 
 air is liurdened Avith hissing shot and bursting shells. The earth 
 trend)les ; the slaughter is appalling; mighty trees are shattered 
 into fragments ; caissons are exploded — a Avhirhvind of destruction 
 ])revails. Shell after shell bursts Avith death-dealing effect in the 
 verv midst of the Federal lines; men are torn liml) from liml) and 
 lacerated beyond recognition. This frightful cannonading Avas 
 continu.ed Avith remarkable rapidity. The contracted limits of the 
 Federal batteries rendi-i-ed it impossible to concentrate their full

 Sturdy veterans who liad witnessed the ftiry and desi)eration 
 of other ^vars now stand awed at tlie liell of tire, eonfusion and de- 
 struction that rages Avitliin tlieir midst. AVlien will it end y When 
 "will this frightful sacrifice of human life he complete? Suddenly 
 the lire of the Federal gnus on Cemetery Hill is silenced. The 
 Confederates inter])ret this cessation to mean that the ammunition 
 of the T'nion hatteries at that ])oint has l)een exhausted. Soon, 
 liowever, the cannonading ceases all along the Federal line, the fury 
 of the conflict subsides, and naught is heard save the thundering- 
 •echoes of the Confederate guns, f'he silence of the Federal hat- 
 teries is ominous of prejiaration for another line of attack — a eou- 
 flict. in fact, tliat is to decide the issues of the day. 
 ' General Hunt, in expectation of an immediate charge hv the 
 •combined infantry of the Confederate forces, had ordered the bat- 
 teries to withdraw from action, in order to prepare the field for free 
 and determined resistance. The fire of the Confederate artillery 
 oeases. Cen. Pickett, Avho is to lead the charge against the Fnion 
 lines, gallantly rides tn Longstreet to receive his command to ad- 
 Tance. 
 
 Lee is deterndned thai the charge must be made, notwithstand- 
 ing Longstreet's opposition. AVheii Pickett asks for orders to 
 charge tiie enemy's front, Longstreet ren^dns silent. The hero of 
 the famous charge fully comi)rehenils the situation, and Avitli dig- 
 nity and fortitude 1x)rn of true heroism, he courteouslv addresses 
 his sujaerior officer with the brief but significant remark, '■ I shall 
 {/o forward, .v//-.'" The attacking column was at once brought into 
 position. A superb line of infaidry, numbering 18,000 men, were 
 magnificently arranged in line of l)attle— Pickett's Division on the 
 right and P(ttigrew"s on the left. Trimble's Division occupied the 
 second line and Anderson's the third. The intervening space be- 
 tween the two arnnes is unobstructed, and the perfect tactics of the 
 Confederate troops is evidence of their eagerness for the charge.

 yet inoviii::: witli precision and solidity, like an avalanche of un- 
 yielding force. Every instant hiings them nearer, still nearer to 
 certain death; their si)au of life is lessened with every breath; the 
 chasm of eternity saauls ga})iiig to receive them; the scorciiing 
 sands of the battlelleld will soon he reeking with the life's hlood of 
 men as brave and as loyal to their cause as any who ever faced the 
 grim and relentless ])o\vers of warfare. Yet, onward they marched 
 directly towai'd the ]»ositiou lield by Hancock. Passing the front 
 of Wilcox's comma ud, Pickett orders each brigad<^ to wheel to the 
 left, and simultaneously the Federal batteries pour a raking fire 
 into the ranks of the marching Confederates. The severity of the 
 shock does not check the advance of Pickett's men. Their situa- 
 tion is perilous, for now the Federal line is within musket range, 
 and a frightful tornado of rifle-balls is rained upon the advancing 
 front of the Southerners. Still their ardor is unchecked. Solid 
 shot, shell and canister is showered in their midst. Thousands are 
 slaughtered as the fury of the charge increases. The men rush 
 forward, and (iarnett falls dead Avithin a hundred paces of the 
 Union front. His men angered to desperation, dash fitriously on 
 the Federal line. Armistead forcing liis command forward reaches 
 the front rank and throws the strength of his force upon the Union 
 line, between Kemper and (rarnett's men. The shock is for the 
 moment irresistible. 
 
 The Confederates have pierced the Federal line, and the latter 
 fall back to the earthworks and artillery. Every man is now 
 fighting for himself, the commands of officers cannot be heard. 
 Regiments are in a state of utter confusion ; friend and foe cannot 
 be distinguished; the chaos of war reigns supreme. 
 
 The objective point of tiie Confederates is a clump of trees near 
 the angle of the scone wall. Armistead is now dismounted. On 
 the j)oint of liis sword he Avav(^s his hat, and rushes forward with 
 less than two hundred of his brave followers to attack the Federal 
 guns. He reaches Cushing's battery.

 This locality is known as the -' hhmbj Angle.'' The clump of 
 trees represented in oiii- illu^f.-atioii marks the spot Avhere the Con- 
 federates juade their extreme and su})reme effort in the famous 
 charge. The tide of tlu' onslaught is practically checked at the 
 point Avhere Cushijig and Armistead fell. The "Bloody zingle'^ 
 has been figuratively designated as "T/ee liigh water-r.iarh of the great 
 kttUr:' 
 
 Pickett has penetrated the Union lines, and is reinforced by a 
 dashing movement of Wilcox's and Perry's Brigades, who renew the 
 assault to the south of Hancock's front. Confederate flags wave 
 within the Union ranks. The Federal line continues the attack 
 with mad resistance and unconquerable vigor, and but feeble resist- 
 ance can be offered. A grand rally is made all along the Union 
 front. The artillery sweeps the entire valley Avith. grape and canister. 
 Advance is impossible ; retreat means death. Over 4,00() Confed- 
 erates surrender their arms and are made jirisoners. The repulse is 
 complete, the battle is won, the frightful carnage ended. 
 
 Stuart's Cavalry attempted to attack the right of the Federal 
 line ; but the movement was quickly frustrated by Custer's Brigade 
 and Gregg's Cavalry. Lee made no further advance, but reluctantly 
 withdrew his shattered forces behind Seminary Eidge. 
 
 Early on the morning of July 4th he commenced his retreat 
 southward. Xo interruption was offered to his withdrawal. The 
 spirit of the Confederate army was still unbroken, and sufficient 
 force vet remained to assume the defensive it ayain attacked.

 THE NATIONAL CEMETERY— ITS BEAUTIFUL AND APPROPRIATE LOCATION — ADDRESS Of DEDICATION 
 
 Br PRESIDENT LINCOLN — A NOTABLE COINCIDENCE — DESCRIPTION 
 
 O? THE SOLDIERS' MONUMENT. 
 
 'he locution of the National C'Craetery at Gettysburg is on the 
 celebrated ridgv adjacent to the town, familiarly knoM'n as 
 Cemetery Hill. It contains an area of seventeen acres, and 
 occupies a beautiful and commanding position. From the elevation 
 -of Cemetery Hill the view of the surrounding country is superb. 
 A broad expanse <if fertile ^alleys and plains extend toward the 
 north, south and west, to which the mountain cliffs, ridges and 
 forests away off in the distance add a charming l)ackground. It 
 seems especially appropriate that the site selected for the National 
 Cemetery should be a portion of the battlefield. 
 
 From the heights of Cemetery Hill in 18G3, the Union batter- 
 ies sent forth in fury their dreadful missies of slaughter and de- 
 struction. Xow all is peace, the soldier heroes sleep their last sleep 
 beneath the field long since consecrated by their valor and their lives. 
 The idea of locating a Xational Cemetery at Gettysburg was sug- 
 gested and decided upon Avithin a few days after the Ijattle. 
 Prompt and energetic measures Avere adopted by Governor Andrew 
 G. Curtain, of Pennsylvania, to obtain Cemetery Hill as the most 
 clesiral)le site for the last resting place of the Union dead. His 
 efforts Avere ably aided by Hon. David Wills, of Gettysburg, and the 
 co-operation of the Federal Governors of all States represented in the 
 ^reat l)attle. Their efforts Avere crowned with gratifving success. 
 The iioble A\'ork inspired Avouderful enthusiasm. The task Avas a 
 labor of duty inspired by sympathy and reverence. The grounds 
 were at once improved, beautified and prepared for dedication on 
 Xovendier 19th, 18G.3, only a little more than four months after 
 the l)attle. The services of dedication commenced Avith devotional 
 exercises. The opening oration Avas eloquently rendered bv Hon. 
 EdAvard Everett. The address of dedication Avas delivered bv 
 President Lincoln. His Avords Avere brief and simple, but replete 
 with the evidence of that tenderness for which his nature Avas 
 
 noted.

 A notable coiiicideuce is thus reljited in i-oiuu'ctiou with tliL- 
 jissociutiou of Lineohi and Everett on the occasion of the dedica- 
 tion of the ]Si"ational Cemetery. Tliese distinguished men had 
 never met. They Avere formally introduced and exchanged social 
 greetings as the orators of the day. After the ceremonies they 
 separated, never to meet again. During the candidacy of ]\Ir. Lin- 
 coln for President, Mr. Everett was also a candidate for the office- 
 of Vice-President on the opposition ticket. Hon. Edward Everett 
 died in 1865, only a brief time before Lincohi was assassinated. 
 
 The main entrance, or gatew^ay, to Xational Cemetery fi-onts on 
 the Baltimore road, Ayhich at this point is j^ractically the extension 
 of Baltimore street, and within fifteen minutes easy w^alk from the 
 centre of the town. The massive iron gateway is of beautiful 
 design and elaliorate construction. On the supporting pillars is 
 artistically designed the names of the States represented in the 
 Army of the Potomac and participating in the Ijattle. The inclo- 
 sure of National Cemetery is adorned with beautiful flower l)eds, 
 verdant huyns, graceful circles, spacious drives and graveled walks. 
 The main avenue is guarded on either side by a continuous line of 
 majestic trees, that stand forth like sturdy sentinels keeping per- 
 petual guard oyer th« graves of sleeping heroes. This splendid 
 avenue is one of the most picturesque localities in the cemetery. 
 Its grateful shade, its inviting and cleanly surnnindings. always 
 prompt the visitor to seek a quiet rest Ayithin its pleasant shelter, 
 before meditating upon the sad retrospect that will engage his 
 thoughts when he proceeds upon his errand of investigation and 
 contemplation. Owing to the elevation of National Cemetery its 
 area is constantl}' swept by balmy l)reezes that add refreshing and 
 invigorating influence during the summer months. 
 
 Th« main frontage of Xational Cemetery is guarded by a 
 heavy iron 'ailing. On two sides it is protected by massive walls 
 of stone, broadly capped with granite slabs. Evergreen Cemetery 
 adjoins National Cemetery on the w'est side, from which it is sepa- 
 rated by a hedge of Avell developed growth. Many of tlie monn- 
 ments and memorial tablets located in National Cemetery are of 
 
— 47 — 
 
 beautiful and costly dcoigu. The Xutioiud Mouumeut is, of course, 
 the most elaborate and imjDOsing. Its location is to the right of 
 the main avenue, and near the centre of the Cemetery. 
 
 The height of the National Monument is sixty-five feet. The 
 pedestal twenty-live feet square is of octagonal shape and substan- 
 tial construction. It is surmounted by four figtires representing 
 War, History, Peace and Plenty. The composition of the monu- 
 ment is gray granite. The shaft supports a beautifully carved 
 white marble statue of the Gexius of Liberty holding extended 
 in her right hand a latirel wreath, the eml^leni of victory. The 
 monument has been ^^rouounced a work of rare and jirtistic excel- 
 lence, intelligently suggestive and appropriate. 
 
 The entire structure was designed by J. G. Batterson, of C'on- 
 iiecticut. The statues were carved in Italy, under the direction of 
 Eandolph Rogers, of ilaryland, a famous sculptor. The total cost 
 Avas $50,000. The corner-stone of the monument was laid Jtily 
 4, 18G5, in the ]iresence of an assemblage numljering fifty thousand. 
 The dedication occttrred Julv 1, 18G9. The soldiers' g-raves, num- 
 bering 3,575, are arranged in semi-circular rotation, the lines diverg- 
 ing on either side from the Xational ^Monument as a central point. 
 Nearly one thousand graves are marked itnknown, and indicated 
 only by numbers. Many soldiers are buried in Evergreen Ceme- 
 tery, and a vast iitimber of the dead were promptly identified on 
 the battlefield and retttrned to their distant homes.

 fN the Spring of 1881) the Western 31;irvUuur liiulroad com- 
 pleted the western extension of its Baltimore and Harris- 
 burg Division from Orrtanna, a station eiglit miles west of 
 Gettysburg, to Highfield Station (the Junction point with tiie main 
 line), just one mile east of Pen-3Iar. The route traversed from 
 Orrtanna is practically the same as the line of the old Pennsylvania 
 State road which figured so extensively in i")olitics more than half 
 a century ago, and which was made an issue in several campaign 
 feuds of that period. The theory which inspired the building of 
 the Pennsylvania State Eailroad, was the tapping at or near Clear- 
 spring, of the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, then in 
 course of construction. The latter road, however, proved hostile 
 to the project, and having secured necessary legislation, changed 
 the route of its survey to the Virginia side of the Potomac. This 
 change of location undoubtedly strengthened the argument in 
 Pennsylvania against the completion of the State road to Clear- 
 spring. Its political opponents fought the measure Avitli such 
 determined resistance, that further progress w-as.not only checked, 
 but the entire work was abruptly and finally abandoned. The 
 State had already invested abont $750,000 in the construction 
 of the road bed, and in building bridges and viaducts of 
 
— 81 — 
 
 splendid iiuisoury, which have withstood the ravages of lialf a 
 century of neglect. Public interest in the venture gradually 
 became lessened to such a degree, tliat after the lapse of fifteen 
 years til e Legislature of t hi' State renounced all I'esponsibility for 
 the future of the road, and gave it in its neglected condition to a 
 corporation then struggling to build a railroad from Hanover to 
 •Gettysburg, the only consideration being the natural advantages of 
 convenient traffic and transportation that would accrue to the 
 people of that territory and the possible development of new indus- 
 tries. I'pon acquiring this valuable franchise fi'om tlie State, the 
 corporation completed its road from Hanover to Gettysburg, and 
 after a brief existence collapsed. At the sale of its charter and 
 .assets the old road bed passed into the possession of new owriers, 
 and through them to its present owners, the Western Maryland 
 Railroad Company. This acquisition at once gave the latter corpo- 
 ration an independent line from Baltimore to Gettysburg via Emory 
 Grove, from which (junction) point to Hightield the line is known as 
 the Baltimore and Harrisburg Division of the Western Maryland 
 Railroad. The old State Railroad in its early history was familiarly 
 called the "•Tape-Worm." The origin of this rather odd title is 
 attributed to two causes — the first and perhaps the most authentic 
 is because the original survey of the line as it crossed the moun- 
 tain, carried the course of the road around many twists and curves, 
 its winding outlines resembling the zig-zag formation of a " Tape- 
 Worm." Another and more recent explanation is, that the road was 
 termed the ''• Tape- Worm," because it was a great "rowswwzer" — 
 •of appropriations. 
 
 As a matter of fact, the old State road even in following the 
 lines of its original survey, did not develop as many curves and 
 turns as can be seen in mountain railroads of more recent construc- 
 tion. In completing its western extension the Western ^Maryland 
 Railroad Company followed the old '• Tape- Worm " route for about 
 ten miles from Gettysburg to Donaldson's farm. At this point the 
 ^lade was changed, and a new line located nearer the mountain's 
 base, Avhich resulted in materially lessening the distance traversed 
 
— 83 — 
 
 ill iru.vsiiig Jack'.s .Mountain, and greatly dt'civasing the cost, but of 
 course at tlie expense of heavier grades. At the summit the line 
 again ()c'ini[)ies the old road bed for a few miles, passing in its 
 coursi' directly in tlie rear of tlie once noted l)ut now dismantWl 
 Maria Furnace, (formerly owned and operated by lion. Thaddeus 
 Stevens), crossing Tom's Creek with a horse-shoe curve, more grace- 
 ful in outline and more j)ictures([ue in natural surroundings than 
 the famous "Horse-shoe" of the Alieghenies. Tlie new line is 
 seldom out of sight of any portion of the old road. The route 
 from Trettysburg to the summit of Jack's ^Mountain is so located as 
 to command not only the most extensive views of the magnificent 
 expanse of panoramic valleys, l;)ut likewise to develop the greatest 
 charms of picturesque mountain scenery. The Xew Short Line, 
 as it is now very properly designated, places Oettysburg in direct 
 connection with Ilagerstown, Waynesboro, Chambersburg and 
 Shippensburg, thus forming a splendid system of connections 
 with the Shenandoah Valley and Baltimore and Ohio Railroads from 
 points South and West. 
 
 Arriving at Hagerstown from any ]»oint on the lines of the 
 above-named railroads, the passenger will continue his journey to> 
 Gettysburg by making eonnection with the main line trains of the 
 AVestern ]\Iaryland Railroad at Hagerstown, and thence proceeding- 
 eastw'ard seventeen miles to Highfield, the junction point of The 
 New Short Lixe, passing en mute the Avidely-famed Blue Mountain 
 House, and directly through the enchanting Pen-]\Iar locality. The 
 line from Hagerstown to Gettysburg is almost parallel with the 
 route of Lee's army in its march to the Battlefield in 1863. From 
 Highfield the distance to Gettysburg is only twenty-three miles. 
 
 A notable feature of The Xew Short Line is the curved 
 tunnel through a spur of Jack's ^Mountain, about one mile east of 
 Monterey. The entire route presents a succession of nature's most 
 enchanting pictures, which cannot fail to please and interest the 
 traveler. The superb view of the valleys from Jack's Mountain, 
 and the two liorse-shoe curves, are also noteworthy attractions.

 A more detailed description of the line of the Baltimore and 
 Harrisburg Division of the Western ^laryland liailroad from High- 
 field to Gettysburg may be found interesting, especially to travelers 
 and tourists contemi)lating a trij) to the Battlefield, via the histo- 
 ric route of the old •• Tai-k-Worm" liailroad. 
 
 Highfield. — Twenty-three miles from (Gettysburg, seventeen 
 miles from Ilagerstowii and seventy miles from Baltimore, is the 
 v/estern junction point of the Baltimore and Harrisburg Division 
 of the AYestern Marvland Railroad with the main lini*. It is 
 located in the famous Pen-Alar region, on the summit of the 
 Blue Eidge Alountains. In the vicinity of Hightield are many 
 popnlar Summer resorts, cottages and handsome villas, all of Avhicli 
 are liberally patronized during the season. Highfiehl is only one 
 mile east of Pen-Alar Park, tlie beantiful and famous excursion 
 resort of the AYestern ]\Iaryland Wailroad, visited annually by over 
 one lumdred and fifty thousand persons from all sections of the 
 country. At Plighfield the Company has erected a suljstantial and 
 attractive station for the convenience of passengers and visitors to 
 the numerous pleasant resorts in that most picturesque locality, 
 together with other terminal facilities for its Baltimore and Harris- 
 burg Division. 
 
 Monterey. — TAveuty-one miles from Gettysburg, nineteen 
 miles from Ilagerstown and seventy-two miles from Baltimore, a 
 station used mainly for the convenience of Summer visitors to the 
 Blue Ridge ^fountains. Its situation commands an extended view 
 of a most fertile and beautiful territory. Alonterey is located in 
 the very midst of a score or more of picturesque resorts, noted 
 for healthful influences and cheerful surroundings. Within half a 
 mile of Alonterey Station is situated the widely-famed Ab^iterey 
 Springs Hotel, with accommodations for two hundred and seventy- 
 five o-uests. The hotel is a handsomely proportioned brick structure, 
 with substantial frame annex. Its elevation is fourteen hundred 
 
— 87 — 
 
 feet above sea level, The adjacent grounds, coin})rising beautirully 
 shaded groves, gardens, lawns, tennis field, etc., cover an area itf four 
 hundred acres. The buildings are provided with bath, gas, bowling 
 alley and a detached play-i'ooni for children. Monterey has been 
 ftimous as a |)ublic liealth resort for more than a century. Before 
 the erection of the })resent hotel, the site was occupied by other 
 noted hostelries bearing the same nanu-. In its earlier history the 
 resort was frequently visited by President Buchanan, Hon. '^rhaddeus 
 Stevens and other distinguished guests. On the night of -Tuly 4th, 
 1863, the army of (leneral Lee, numbering forty-three thousand men, 
 in retreat from Gettysburg Battlefield, encamped at Monterey. The 
 commanding elevation enabled Lee to control the situation of the 
 numerous roads and surrounding country in deciding upon the objec- 
 tive course of his retreat. The locality of Monterey has always been 
 a favorite and ])opular field for botanical students, artists and 
 geologists, affording as it does a wide diversity of subjects for 
 studies and sketches. S})lendid roads, beautiful drives and an 
 unsurpassed expanse of charming scenery, are likewise notable fea- 
 tures of the Monterey region. Among the historic and picturesque 
 localities within easy reach of Monterey are Emmitsburg (the seat 
 of the renowned Mount St. Mary's College, founded in 1808 by 
 Rev. John Dubois, afterwards Bishop of New York), Gettysburg, 
 iVntietam, ^lont Alto and Doubling Gap. The drive to these 
 points is over macadamized roads. Nearer localities of enjoyable 
 interest are ^Nlount Quirauk, High Kock, Blue Mountain House, 
 The Cascades, Devil's Race Course, Fairfield, Hanging Valley, etc., 
 all Avithin from two to six miles of Monterey. Natural sjirings 
 of purest water abound throughout this panoramic and enchanting 
 countrv. During the season conveyances from the surrounding 
 numerous resorts meet all trains of the Western Maryland Railroad 
 at ]\Ionterev or other more convenient stations. 
 
 Jack's Mountain Station. — Twenty-three miles from Ha- 
 gerstown, sixteen miles from Gettysburg and seventy-scA-en mrles 
 from Baltimore. Between ^lonterey and Jack's jVIountain Station 
 
BLUE ROCK CUT NEAR MARIA FURNACE. 
 
— 89 — 
 
 is located the mountain tunnel, pierced and lirwn through solid 
 rock. Near Jack's Mountain Station is situated the j)leasant 
 village of Fountaindale. The town lies directly at the moun- 
 tain's base on either side of the pike. Thousands of Confederate 
 troops passed througli Foimtaindale en route to Trettrsburg. 
 The ^'■oldest inhabitantx" now excitedly describe the vivid scenes 
 then enacted Avithin their quiet and sequestered village. The 
 hasty depletion of hen roosts, pig stys and barn yards by tlie 
 foraging squads, without even so much as a "thank von, sir," 
 created an awe inspiring wonderment in ilie minds of the }dain 
 and honest villagers that completely annihilated all feelings of 
 indignation, and prevented any attempt at what would have proved 
 useless resistance. The necessities created by the force of circum- 
 stances are practically irresistible in times of war. Leaving the 
 tunnel, the course of the old •' Tape-Worm "" Tiailroad makes the 
 graceful sweep of a perfect horse-shoe curve, ]nissing the ruins of 
 the old "• Maria Furnace," and crossing Tom's Creek just at the 
 apex of the curve. 
 
 Maria Furnace. — Twenty-seven miles from Hagerstown, 
 twenty-three miles from Gettysburg and eighty miles fi-om Balti- 
 more. This locality is not only associated with mitural and his- 
 toric interest, but serves as a practical example of the remark- 
 able changes that can be wrought by the ravages of time. The 
 railroad station takes its name from the adjacent ruins of the 
 old '^Maria Furnace." More than half a century ago, Maria Fur- 
 nace, then owned and operated by Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, the 
 great commoner, Avas deemed an enterprise of wonderful promise. 
 As an important industrial plant its location was highly favored. 
 The site occupied by the furnace is surrounded by rich and ex- 
 tensive ore fields. Employment was then afforrled to hundreds of 
 operatives, and the jDroduction of iron comparatively reduced to a 
 minimum cost. Xo industry was ever established with brighter 
 prospects of a successful aiul progressive future. When the pre.?-- 
 tige of the old State Railroad became a (juestion of doubt, and the 
 
— 91 — 
 
 suggested measures for its completion were annulled by special 
 enactment of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, a long period of 
 inactivity ensued, during which the Maria Furnace languished on 
 the •• ragged edge " of forlorn hope. The maintenance of a great 
 iron industry in a locality devoid of the means of transporting its 
 products, was akin to '•"shi}) building in a desert." Gradually but 
 surely the enterprise died tlie death of neglect and abandonment. 
 Its fires were hanked forever. Now all that i-emains of its former 
 greatness is a crumbling mass of ruins. Our illustration on oppo- 
 site page presents an accurate view of the ruins of this once noted 
 industry. Millions of tons of excellent ore can be obtained in this 
 territory within easy or immediate access of the now perfectly 
 equipped railroad operated by tlie Western Maryland Railroad Com- 
 pany. A grand field is presented for the re-development of an 
 industry which natural conditions and convenient facilities for 
 transportation combine to render almost imperative. 
 
 Fairfield. — Twenty-eight miles from Hagerstown, eleven miles 
 from Gettysburg and eighty-one miles from Baltimore. The town 
 of Fairfield, Adams County, Penna., (originally called ]\[illers- 
 town), has a population of about five hundred. Its location is in a 
 beautiful valley, about three-quarters of a mile from the railroad 
 station of the same name, and directly faces Jack's ^fountain. 
 Large quantities of oak tanning bark gathered by the sturdy moun- 
 taineers are shipped from Fairfield station. Cattle, grain and hay 
 are also extensively freighted from this point, and form a produc- 
 tive source of revenue for the thrifty farmers. Fairfield is blessed 
 with good schools and four chui-bhes, Lutheran. Methodist, Catholic 
 .and Reformed, thus providing a source of religious influence for 
 numerous residents of the adjacent country. Among the industries 
 of Fairfield is a steam power spoke factory, saw mills, etc., giving 
 ■employment to almost the entire male j)opulation. There is only 
 one hotel in Fairfield, an old-fashioned, solid and comfortable 
 structure of liberal proportions, with ample accommodations for a 
 large numl)er of guests. At Fairfield Station the Railroad Company 
 
— 92 — 
 
 has ciTctcd :i liaiidsoiiic Wrick station building, with spacious and 
 checii'ul wairin-- rooms, ticket- oflicc, telegraph facilities, etc.; also a. 
 substantial grain elevator with a caijacity of tiftcen thousand bush- 
 els, atfording great convenience in the storage and hauling of grain 
 for trans])ortation. 
 
 Virginia Mills. — Distant one mile west of Fairlield is a freight 
 station mainly used to facilitate the shipment of grain, hay and 
 timber. Near this station is located tlie old " X'irginia ]\Iills,*' from 
 which the station takes its name. " ^larshall "' and " Heintzleman '^ 
 are also important freight stations situated at convenient points be- 
 tween Virginia Mills and Orrtanna. 
 
 Orrtanna. — Thirty-two miles from Hagerstow n, eight miles 
 from Gettysburg and seventy-rdne miles from Baltimore. The- 
 western extension of the AVestern Maryland Railroad, completed in 
 the spring of '89, comprises that portion of the B. & H. Division 
 extending from Orrtanna to Hightield — a distance of tifteen miles. 
 The name of the station is a combination of the names "Orr" (a. 
 family name well established in this locality) and "Tannery,"' from 
 the fact that a large tannery was at one time operated near the sta- 
 tion. At Orrtanna are located extensive lime-kilns. Near Orrtanna 
 is situated the thriving village of C'ashtown. The station is also a 
 convenient point for -the freightage of hay, cattle, timber, cord- 
 wood, bark and charcoal. 
 
 McKnightstown. — Thirty-four miles from Hagerstown, six: 
 miles from (iettysburg and seventy-^even miles from Baltimoi'e. Mc- 
 Knightstown, Adams county, Pa., (formerly named Salem), is a. 
 quiet and cleanly rural town of about two hundred and fifty in- 
 habitants. The railroad station (of the same name) is located 
 about half a mile from the village. I\IcKnightsto\vn can boast of 
 two churches, a first-rate hotel and an attractive array of red-brick 
 dwellings. Hay packing and the storage and shipment of grain are 
 the pi'incipal industries of McKnightstown and vicinitv. 
 
— 9o — 
 
 Seven Stars. — Thirty-six miles i'roni Ilagerstown, four miles 
 from Oettyslmi'jf and seventy-five miles from Baltimore. At this 
 point tlie rnilroad crosses the liistoric Chatiihersburg jiikc, made 
 famous as the route of Lee's advanct' and retreat during the dark 
 days of '63. Seven Stars is a (juaint and jncturesqne village of about 
 150 to 200 inhabitants. It is recorded that many years ago a tlirifty 
 iind shrewd old German established an "inn" or "tavern" l)y the 
 \\-ayside (now Chamsbersburg ])ike), near the present location of the 
 railroad station. His sign-board was of mammoth dimensions, and 
 bore the name "Seven Stars Hotel," surmounted by a semi-cii-cle of 
 seven stars. The "Seven Stars Hotel" is still fulfilling its mission 
 as a "stopi^ing-place for the tired and thirsty wayfarer." It is from 
 the odd title of this ancient liostelry that the village takes its 
 name. Hay packing and the cutting and shipping of large quanti- 
 ties of fibre wood for paper-mills are among the leading industries 
 of this locality. The adjacent lands are richly cultivated and yield 
 profuse crops of grain and market }iroducts. 
 
 Stremmels. — A freight station, located two miles irom Get- 
 tysburg. Near the station several extensive stone quarries are 
 operated. From this point Seminary Ridge is in full view; also 
 the Lutheran Theological Seminary, which was used as a hospital 
 during the continuance of the great battle. The lines of battle ex- 
 tended far to the west, north and east of Stremmels. From the 
 cupola of the seminary building General Buford directed the open- 
 ing of the battle on the early morning of July 1. From Stremmels, 
 one mile onward toward Gettysburg, the route of the "Gettysburg 
 {Short Line" is directly through the battlefield. This division of the 
 field formed by the railroad cut lias frequently received historical 
 mention in the most comprehensive accounts of the battle. Near 
 Stremmels is the scene of the first day's fight. To make all points 
 of this locality accessible, the Battlefield Memorial Association has 
 constructed a wide and well graded avenue, commencing at the Ha- 
 gerstown road and extending to Mummasburg road, ci'ossing the 
 Chambersburg pike and the famous old "Tape-Worm" Railroad. This 
 
— 94 — 
 
 beautiful diivc is called "Reynolds Avenue," and is a direct route to 
 manv of the most iiii(i()r(aiit }»ositi()ns of the first day's conllict", in- 
 cluding the "Reynolds Park,*' where CJeneral Iieynolds was killed. 
 The spot where TJeynolds fell and died is indicated by a sign-board 
 attaclied to a large oak tree located in the northeastern section of 
 the gxove. A bronze statue of (ieneral Reynolds is erected in the 
 Natioiuil Cemetery, near the entrance. In the field, on either side 
 of the railroad cut, and along the entire line of Reynolds avenue^ 
 many elaborate monuments are located, prominent among which are 
 the shafts of the (Itli Wisconsin Volunteers (Iron Brigade), 14tli 
 Brooklyn, 84th New York Infantry, 3d Indiana Cavalry, 1st Brig- 
 ade; 147th New' York Infantry, 2d Brigade, 1st Corps; 56th Penn- 
 sylvania, 2d Brigade, 1st Division. 1st Corps. (The latter regiment, 
 it is claimed, delivered the opening fire of infantry.) 8th New York 
 Cavalry, 1st P)rigade, 1st Division; Reynolds Battery, 1st New Y^ork 
 Light Artillei'y, and 07th New York Infantry. On the route of 
 Reynolds avenue are also erected the monuments of the 2d and 7tlL 
 Wisconsin, \^olunteer Infantry, Iron Brigade, and the beautiful and 
 imposing shaft of the 24th Michigan, 1st Division, Iron Brigade.

 THE KATALYSINE SPRING. 
 
 The celebrated Katalysine Spring is situated within half a mile 
 of Lee's headqmirters, near the Springs Hotel, and about 200 yards 
 south of the Charabersburg pike. The curative properties of the 
 "Katalysine" water is considered especially beneincial in kidney and 
 bladder troubles. The Spring is very copious, and the Avater is 
 shipped in large quantities to numerous points throughout the 
 United States and Europe. Several other mineral springs have 
 recently been located within a mile of the "Katalysine" waters. 
 
 WHO FIRED THE FIRST SHOT? 
 
 About 2^ miles from Gettysburg, on the Chambersburg pike, the 
 visitor will observe a memorial stone located in the angle of an ad- 
 jacent field immediately opposite the Hester Mill road. The inscrip- 
 tion upon the stone indicates that it marks the spot where Captain 
 Jones, of Company E, 8th Hlinois Cavalry, stood at 7.30 o'clock ou 
 the morning of July 1st, 1863, and fired the first shot of the great 
 battle with Sergeant Shafer's carbine. There is, however, a wide 
 diversity of opinion regarding the absolute correctness of this claim. 
 The vast area of the battlefield, Avith tens of thousands of troops 
 gathering from every direction and concentrating toward a coMimon 
 centre, would in itself render it almost impossible to decide with 
 certaintv, when or by whom the first shot of the battle of Gettys- 
 burg was fired, hence it is not surprising that the distinction of firing 
 the '\first shot" is claimed liy many.

 In making a tour of the battlefield the visitor will frequently 
 note the scarred and shattered trunks and branches of sturdy trees 
 that were exposed to the raking fire of " grape and canister." Scat- 
 tered throughout tlie trunk of a large tree that it was necessary to 
 cut down as an obstacle in grading an avenue on the battlefield, there 
 was found imbedded in the trunk and larger branches over nine hun- 
 dred shot and rifle-balls of various kinds and sizes. This is only 
 one of many similar instances. It seems impossible- that even time 
 and nature can remove the evidences of that terrible scourge of artil- 
 lery fire to wdiich the surrounding woodland was subjected during- 
 that awful three-days' fight.

 JOHN BURNS: THE HERO OF GETTYSBURG. 
 
 The residence forniei'ly occupied by old John Burns is located 
 at the terminus o{' Cliambersburg street. The following descrip- 
 
— 103 — 
 
 tion of the venture that nuule John Burns famous is taken from an 
 article written by W. H. Tipton, of Gettysburij: 
 
 "On the memorable 1st of July, '63, at the commencement of the bat- 
 tle of Gettysburg, John Bv;rns, then past 70 years of age, and a citizen of 
 this place, inspiied bj' the spirit of true patriotism, shouldered his trusiy 
 rifle and went out to meet the enemy, who were within a short distance 
 of town in the direction of C'hambersburg. Burns entered tlie ranks of 
 a Wisconsin regiment. In tiie early part of the engagement he was 
 wounded twice, and althougli sufTering from his wounds, he faltered not, 
 but, like the heroes of olden times, passed on eager for the combat, in 
 which he took an active part, until near four o'clock P. 31., when he fell 
 badly wounded by a ball in the ankle. Soon after his fall the Federal army 
 retreated, leaving him upon the field within the enemy's lines, where he lay 
 until the following morning." 
 
 John Burns is buried in Evergreen Cemetery. 
 
 GULP'S HILL. 
 
 The name '• Gulp's Hill " has passed into history as one of the

 Blue JVIountain House 
 
 I THIN an hour's ride from Gettysburg is the world- 
 L*" renowned Blue Mountain and Pen-Mar region, famed 
 for the matchless magnificence of its scenic splendors, inspiring 
 ■elevations, and superb expanse of rich and fertile valleys. This is 
 the picturesque locality of that delightful haven of rest, recreation 
 and healthful diversion, the Blue Mountain House. Visitors 
 to Gettysburg Battlefield should not fail to see and appreciate the 
 grand concentration of Nature's most inspiring creations that has 
 made the name of Blue Mountain famous throughout the land. 
 Lovers of grand natural scenery and picturesque beauty can traverse 
 no section of the country that presents so many varied pictures of 
 panoramic enchantment, as are witnessed during the interesting 
 trip of twenty-five miles over the B. & H. Division and main line 
 of the Western Maryland Railroad to the Blue Ridge Mountains. 
 The traveler passes through fertile valleys and undulating lands, 
 teeming with luxuriant vegetation. Emerging from the low-lands 
 by gradual ascent, the rugged grandeur of the Blue Ridge opens to 
 view, near Highfield, the junction iwiut with the main line. Just 
 two miles west of Highfield, is Blue Mountain Station. 
 
 "Here the majesty of Nature in her sublimest mood has touched 
 with her fairy Avand these enchanted scenes of reality." . . . 
 
 Amid the picturesque and inspiring scenery of the Blue Ridge 
 Mountains, majestically located at an elevation of nearly 1,500 feet 
 above tidewater, the Blue Mountain House commands a superb 
 and unobstructed view of the Avorld-famed Cumberland and Shen- 
 andoah Vallevs. Words are inadequate to describe the gorgeous 
 and radiant beauty of the scenic splendors that greet the enraptured 
 
— 106 — 
 
 gaze of the tourist or visitor to this charming locality. Noted 
 travelers have proclaimed this magnificent region "A miniature 
 universe of Nature's most suhlimc and enrliantind charms.''^ 
 
 " So sweet a spot of eartli, you might, I ween, 
 Have sjuessed some congregation of the elves. 
 To sport by summer moons, had shaped it for themselves." 
 
 "the queen resort of the blue ridge." 
 
 The Blue Mountain House is justly classed among the most 
 noted summer resorts of America. One can scarcely picture a more 
 delightful spot wherein to while away the sultry days of summer. 
 Its superb elevation, its accessibility, its superior conveniences, its 
 inspiring surroundings, and the many facilities afforded for perfect 
 restful contentment and healthful and exhilarating diversion, at 
 once commend this famous retreat as an ideiil and unsurpassed 
 Mountain resort. The days are pleasant and enjoyable, the peren- 
 nial breezes impregnated with the appetizing aroma of the forest 
 arouse the vital forces to vigorous action, and create a buoyancy of 
 spirits that makes you realize an existence under most favored con- 
 ditions. 
 
 A brief ride of three minutes fi'om the station, in the hotel con- 
 veyance, along a broad and winding driveway on the Mountain 
 slope, within the area of the Blue Mountain House grounds,. and 
 the visitor has reached his destination. You linger almost spell- 
 bound a few moments on the broad and breezy porch, to gaze with 
 mingled sensations of aAve and admiration upon the vast and beau- 
 teous panorama of scenic glories that greets your sweeping gaze 
 across the magnificent expanse of the Cumberland and Shenandoah 
 Valleys. 
 
 " 'Twas pleasant through the loopholes of retreat 
 To peep on such a world." 
 
 It is a glance to be remembered for the lifetime of those who 
 have not before witnessed this inspiring scene, this radiant outburst 
 
— 108 — 
 
 of Natinv's haiuliwork, that so sii])erbly blends tin- pictiiivs(|iie with 
 the .supn-me (Iclicafv of beauty, and a iVesh joy to those avIio are 
 familiar ^vith tlie clianii and fascination of its impressive richness. 
 
 It has been said aad oft rcjwalcd that '-tlu' ctocjui'iar of a 
 Demosthenes, nanti'uaid iritli tla- jinctir acnius of a Bi/roa, 
 would fail to do jastirc to an accurate description of tlw 
 matchless scenery of tlic icortd -fana'd Cund/ertaad and 
 Shenandoah Valleys, as witnessed froni the eniinence of the 
 Blue Ridge Mountains, on which the Blue Mountain House 
 is so inajesticalli/ located." Standing at a central point 
 upon the main porch of tlte hotel, and gazing at the hro((d 
 expanse of fertile vallegs that cjdemt onmird and (atirarrf 
 toivard the distant mountains, the rietr is truhj iialescritnt- 
 hle. Its vastness, its grandeur aud inspiring heauty dawn 
 upon the enraptured mi nil like a glorious vision rerealing 
 a fairyland of radiance ami enctnintment. 
 
 In construction, appointments and management the Blue Moun- 
 tain House is truly the practical exemplification of a Model Sum- 
 mer Resort, l)esides possessing many exclusive advantages, realized 
 through eligibility of location and proximity to historic and inter- 
 esting points, made quickly accessible by the excellent train service 
 of the Western Maryland Railroad, or by delightful drives over 
 well-kept roads. In architectural beauty and interior adornment 
 the Blue Mountain House presents many })leasing features. The 
 hotel has ample accommodations for five hundred guests. The ad- 
 vantage gained by its extensive frontage is evident from the fact 
 that only three sleeping floors are required, and that every room is 
 therefore desirable. In adopting this i)lan of construction a de- 
 cided improvement is at once established over numerous summer 
 hotels where guests are compelled to lodge in the sixth or seventh 
 story. 
 
 The sleeping rooms or chambers are spacious, with high ceilings. 
 Light, sunshine, pure air and perfect ventilation are rightly con- 
 sidered i>rime factors in the promotion of health and the recupera- 
 tion of enervated vital force. These important physical aids to 
 
— 109 — 
 
 indiviiluul comfort ;uv secured ;it the Blue Mouxtatx House to a 
 far greater extent than is experienced in many otlier large hotels. 
 This locality is ah^iolufchj free frota mosquifoes. 
 
 Within two miles of Blue Mouxtaix House is tlie famous 
 Edgemont Peach Region. The orchards cover thousands of acres 
 of fruit bearing trees. The industry of jJeach culture in the Blue 
 Mountain region is as important as the cultivation of oranges in 
 Florida. This locality is called the land of ^'peaches niid cream.''^ 
 
 The Blue Mouxtaik House is the leading and most frequented 
 resort of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The country for miles in 
 every direction is fairly teeming with hotels, cottages, villas and 
 farm houses, accommodating thousands of summer boarders during 
 the season, each providing diversions for its guests, the most inter- 
 esting of which is a morning or afternoon drive over excellent roads 
 to the picturesque region of the Blue Mountain" House and Pex- 
 Mae. a sojourn at any point on the Blue Ridge in this locality is 
 not deemed complete -without seeing these renowned resorts and 
 their many varied and attractive features. All roads lead to the 
 "Queen Resort" of the Blue Ridge Mountains — 
 
 "Ami he who is on pleasure bent 
 May whims indulge to heart's content." 
 
 The trip to Blue Mountain House, from many important 
 points, is relieved of the generally unpleasant feature of night 
 travel. The resort is so promptly reached that tourists from New 
 York, Philadelphia, Wilmington, Baltimore, Washington, Rich- 
 mond, Pittsburg and many other localities, arrive at Blue Mountain 
 after an easy journey of from two to ten hours' duration.

 OLD FORT FREDERICK. 
 
 At the eastern end of Big Pool Station, on the Potomac Valley 
 Branch of the Western Maryland Railroad, stands historic Old 
 Fort Frederick, the only ante-revolutionary military monument 
 remaining in Maryland. 
 
 The walls of the fort are twenty feet in height, and are in a good 
 state of preservation. The interior is now a green sward two or 
 three acres in extent. The structure stands on one of the foot-hills 
 of North Mountain, overlooking the canal and Potomac River, 
 with the mountains of West Virginia opi)osite. In the rear is Fair 
 View, a peak of Xorth Mountain. The situation is very beautiful. 
 The railroad (at east end of j)Ool) passes within a few hundred 
 yards of the entrance to the Fort. 
 
 Fort Frederick was built by the colonial government in 1755 to 
 protect the inhabitants of what were then the frontier settlements 
 of the province from the incursions of the Indians. Excursions to 
 Old Fort Frederick are among the diversions enjoyed by guests 
 of the Blue Mountain House.

 YTTHE main line of the Western Maryland Railroad extends from 
 ®IL^ Baltimore to Williamsport, Md., ninety- tliree miles. At 
 Edgemont, seventy-five miles from Baltimore, is the junction point 
 of a branch of the Western Maryland Railroad, loiown as the 
 ^'Baltimore and Cumberland Valhy Railroad," extending north- 
 ward thirty-four miles to its terminus, Shippensbnrg. The route 
 passes directly through the prosperous towns of Waynesboro and 
 Ch amber sbnrg. 
 
 The "Baltimore and Cumberland Valley Railroad" places the 
 richly developed adjacent territory in direct and easy commu- 
 nication with Baltimore, The distance from Shippensbnrg to 
 Baltimore, via the Baltimore and Cumberland Valley Railroad 
 and Western Maryland Railroad, main line, is one hundred and 
 nine miles, and from Chambersburg to Baltimore the distance is 
 only ninety-seven miles. From Shippensbnrg and Chambersburg 
 to Philadelphia the distance is one hundred and forty-one and one 
 hundred and fifty-tivo miles respectively. The Baltimore, Carroll 
 and Frederick Railroad Company, now the Western ]\Iaryland Rail- 
 road, was incorporated in 1852. Its charter empowered it to con- 
 struct a line to the headwaters of the Monocacy river. The mxme 
 of the road was changed in 1853 to "Western Maryland," and at 
 the same time authority was granted by the Legislature to extend 
 its line to Hagerstown. On December 17, 1873, the road was 
 completed from Baltimore to Williaansport, Md., on the Potomac 
 river. The completion of extensions from Williamsport to "Cherry 
 
— lU — 
 
 Run," a station on the B. & 0. R. K., and from " Porters," on the 
 B. & H. Division of the Western Maryland Railroad to York, Pa., 
 has opened a vast and valuable territory for additional traffic, and 
 made the Western Maryland Railroad a most important factor to 
 the commerce of Baltimore. 
 
 PEN-MAR, THE POPULAR MOUNTAIN EXCURSiqN 
 
 RESORT. 
 
 Pen'-M AR, the peerless mountain excursion resort, is located on 
 the main line of the Western Maryland Railroad, near the summit 
 of the Blue Ridge Mountains, seventy-one miles west of Baltimore, 
 sixteen miles east of Hagerstown, and half mile east of Blue 
 Mountain House. The resort is under the direct management of 
 the Western Maryland Railroad Company, which has most liberally 
 provided many features of recreation and healthful diversion for 
 excursionists and visitors, such as can be thoroughly appreciated 
 'mid the exhilarating altitudes. Music, dancing, and a score of 
 varied amusements, are enjoyed by thousands of delighted visitors 
 during the season. Pen-Mar is located directly on the Mason and 
 Dixon line dividing Pennsylvania and Maryland, and derives its 
 name from a combination of the first three letters of the States 
 named, Pennsylvania — P-e-n, and Maryland — M-a-r — Pen-Mar. 
 Excursion trains from Baltimore to Pen- Mar are run daily, arriv- 
 ing shortly before noon, and leaving Pen-Mar returning at 6 P. M. 
 
 LOCALITIES OF ENJOYABLE INTEREST. 
 
 Carriages are always in readiness at Pen-Mar Park to convey you 
 to the lofty realms of wonderland. Up, up, up you go, along the 
 High Rock road, now 'neath the sombre shadows of towering moun- 
 tain peaks ; now on the borders of a deep and craggy ravine, jutted 
 with sturdy and majestic trees that have withstood the blasts of 
 centuries; then, when the summit is reached and the glories of 
 the beauteous valleys greet your fascinated gaze, your very soul 
 
— 115 — 
 
 drinks in the nectar of enchantment. Spellbound you gaze upon 
 a picture of Nature unsurpassed in grandeur and sublimity, and 
 fairly radiant in panoramic loveliness. 
 
 HIGH ROCK OBSERVATORY. 
 
 One of the many attractive rambles is along the mountain path 
 leading through a deeply shaded grove, to the Blue Mountain 
 House, just one mile west of Pen-Mar. The overhanging branches 
 of grand old forest trees afford complete protection from the sun's 
 rays even at noonday.

 GLEN AFTON SPRING. 
 
 Profusely bul)bling from the biise of the mountain, within five 
 minutes' walk of Pen-Mar Park, is Glen Afton Spring, a most

 The Norfolk & Southern Railroad traverses the fertile and productive section of 
 Eastern North Carolina, contiguous to the sounds and inland waters which are tribu- 
 tary to the road by steamboat service, provided and operated by the railroad company, 
 covering a territory by rail and water of about 600 miles. 
 
 Many prosperous towns are located on the line of the road, offering inducements 
 to merchants and business men to establish and extend trade. Farm lands can be 
 bought at prices to suit purchasers. 
 
 For those who delight iu fishing or gunning, the opportunities of this section are

 which are well patronized by sportsmen in search of recreation and pleasure. 
 
 The route to Newberne, N. C, by rail to Elizabeth City, and thence by steamer 
 through the Albemarle, Croatan and Pamlico Sounds, is a most enjoyable and com- 
 fortable trip in either direction.

 Has adopted the Keeley Treat- 
 ment in the Soldiers' Home. 
 
 It is a fact, known generally 
 by well informed persons, that 
 inebriety, morphine and other 
 drug addictions are diseitses, not 
 simply habits, and to be cured 
 the}' must receive medical treat- 
 ment. 
 
 The method of treatment 
 originated by Dr. Leslie E. 
 Keeley, and administered only 
 at institutes authorized by him, 
 cures these diseases. This state- 
 ment is easily substantiated by 
 facts. Three hundred thousand 
 cured men and women are glad 
 to testify to its truth. 
 
 The treatment is pleasant. 
 The patient is subject to no 
 restraint. It is like taking a 
 vacation of four weeks. He 
 only knows that he is cured. 
 
 Detailed information of this 
 treatment and proofs of its suc- 
 cess sent free upon application.
