Historic views of Gettysburg : illustrations in half-tone of all the monuments, important views and historic places on the Gettysburg battlefield . om (he site of Reynolds statue shows the ground over which the Confederates advanced to the attack onthe first day.

Their movementswere observed by General Reynolds, who sent Merediths Iron Brigade against them. A terrific conflict followed and resulted in the capture ofGeneral Archer and about 1200 of his men. The glory of this success was marred by the greatest disaster of the day to the Union arms—thedeath of the brave and lamented Reynolds.. REYNOLDS AVENUE.

Co-operating withCutlers men they drove several hundred of Davis troops into the railroad cut, where they surrendered.
