Baxter, who was | & &3¢ Jo¢ R in command of the Phil.delphia Fire Zouaves at the battle of Gettysburg, in which he contradicts the statement made in Forney’s “Life of General Hancock,” that Hancock selected the ground for the great conflict, and es- tablished the arrargements for the battle, which was substantially main- tained until the victory wes won. “Gen. Haneock,” began Gen. Baxter, “was in command cf the Second army corps, and was with ‘hat corps on the morning of the first of July, 1863. He remained with it until it resumed its march as 1 o'clock, on that day. th= troops hevingheen halted f r the monthie ter for pay. Gen. H.n cock went ahead of his command and roda to n Geo. Meade, who was ihen supposed to be at Tarrytown. Md., and he was thero at about 2:30 o’clock. Up to that time no one not immediately engaged with Gen Reynolds knew anything of fight 'd the death of that { vallant officer a: d the subsequent de- feat of his troops. _While Gen. Han- cock was at Gen. Meade's headquar- ters, a mounted officer from the staff of Gen. 0.0. Howard rode up in great haste and informed Meade of the Jeath of the gallant Reynolds and the ster in the morning. This was the first Gen. Meade knew of the matter, and the oflicer was the only ove to give him a general description. but nome of the details, except that Ge Howard had taken a position on the top of Cemetery Hill, with wha* troops he had, and he sent to Gen. Meade he could hold the P on unt1l reintorcd. Gen. Meade had designed having the troops on the ridue at Stony Creck, but this inform- ation astonished him. ~ Meade imme- diarely sent Hancock t0 the front with instruction to hold Cmetery Hill, where Howord was Haneock was ordered to assume commeand of all the forces he thould find there, and if, 10 his judement, the poeition was not & T 0 e s - o Arrive at Stony creek about 5:30 o'clock, on Tuesdsy afternoon of July 1et, having covered thirteen miles of road. There he found the Eleventh corps commanded by Gen. Howard; the Third corps, commanded by Gen. Sickles; a part of the demoralzed irst corps, that was so terribly worsted; with a lot of stragglers, com- ing in rapid'y as possible, Baore Gen. Hancock Thad time to assame authority, or to decide upon the wracticability or_impracticability of holding that “position, Gen. Slo- cum, who had command of the corps and those troops which were then on Culp Hill, made his_appearance once mor e on Cemetery Hill, and as he out- rap ked Hancoek, Slecum sssumed com- meand of all the troops there. Gen, Stocum directed Gen. Hancock to re- turn to Gen. Meade and say to him that he (Gen. Slicum) had taken position on Cemetery Hill, and that he could hold it against the enemy until reinforcements could reach him. Gen. Hancock returned te Meade and as- sumed command of the second corps, which had arrived at Tarrytown. While heavy cannonading was going on, during the second .f.,, General Hancock mounted, with several of his offices around him, was immediately in front and near a board fence. A cannen ball struck the fence with great force. The boards were torn to picces, and a nail from the boarde, having been loosened by the shock, was driven with great force against Hancock and penetrated his clothing and entered his back a little bi low the shor: ribs. General Hancock then retired to the hospitsl. That ended the fight of the second_day. Gibbon then assumed command of tho corps in place of Hancock. Mr. Baxter, in conclusion, saya: “In view of these facts, all of which I am personally cognizant, having been on the ground, 1 have no hesitation in saying that Gen. Hancock was not the hero of ‘Jettysburg, ner did he save Phil del- phinand Pennsylvania from invasion and destruction. A Stupid Canard.
