. It was out fortune and our duty then to represent in that struggle the great State of Pennsylvania. Another has well said when the great conflict came, Pennsylvania sent 360, 000 of her brave sons to the front and had it been necessary she would have fur- nished as many more.
On every firing line, from the first defiant gun at Bull Run to the last expiring shot of the rebellion at Appomattox, her volunteer soldiery stood like a living Gibralter against the country's foes. In every battle thei...r blood hallowed the soil. In every military prison they heroically bore sufferings worse than death. In the great deeds of valor per- formed on this field on Wednesday, September 17th, 18G2, the soldiers from Pennsylvania were everywhere conspicuous. A Peunsylvanian com- manded the Union army on that fateful day. That noble Pennsylvania soldier who less than ten months later was to win the most important battle of the whole war, and become one of the triumvirate of the greatest American captains — George Gordon Meade — commanded first a division and then an army corps on this ground; General Meade's first command was as brigade commander of the four regiments — 3rd, 4th, 7th and 8th Pennsylvania Reserves, that on this happy occasion are dedicating the four monuments to the patriotic dead who fell on this sanguinary field.
