He then instructed me to draw in my pickets, assemble the artillery and the remainder of the corps, and join him as soon as possible.
Having given these orders, he rode off at the head of the column, and I never saw him again.
The position of the two armies on the morning of the 1st of July, was as follows: The First Corps at Marsh Creek; the Second and Third Corps at Taneytown; the latter being under orders to march to Emmetsburg, to relieve the Eleventh Corps, which was directed to join the First Corps at Gettysburg; the Twelfth Corps was at Two Taverns; the Fifth Corps at Hanover, and the Sixth Corps about thirty-five miles off to the right at Manchester.

Kilpatrick's and Gregg's divisions of cavalry were also at Hanover.

The Confederate army was advancing on Gettysburg from the west and north.

The concentration of their troops and the dispersion of ours are indicated on the map.
It must be remembered that the enemy had but _three_ corps, while the Union army had _seven_.

Each of their corps represented a _third_, and each of ours a _seventh_, of our total force.
