While these events were taking place out on Seminary Ridge, General Howard arrived, and being tlie senior officer on the field, assumed the chief command. Seeing how severely Doubleday was pressed, and observing the retreat of j)art of Cutler's Brigade, Howard sent word ( mistakenly ) to Meade that the First Corps had been worsted, and dispatched messengers to hurry forward the Eleventh C'Orps and call up the Third. He also sent a
...request to Slocum to bring up the Twelfth Corps which was only iive miles distant.'' * General Howard so claims, but the request seems not to have reached General Slocum. At the recent dedication of New York memorials on ("ulp's Hill (July 2, 1888), General Slocum said, referring to the movements of the Twelfth Corps: "At noon on July 1 we were resting and awaiting orders at Two Taverns.
The sound of the guns at the opening of this great battle on July 1 were heard 110 fifty miles to the north and west of the field, while we, owing to the crest of the hills between us and Gettysburg, and to the direction of the wind, lieard nothing of it, although we were only four miles distant.
