10:20 a.m., July 1st, 1863.
<FONT=MsgFont,L,20,20,20>General Meade,
        Upon assessing the ground and situation, we have a major battle coming, and the enemy must be stopped here.  It is my recommendation to continue to move our army here, and defend this ground. 
        General Buford's cavalry has been successful in delaying the enemy's advance from the west.  General Reynolds Corps has just arrived and he is already deploying his 1st division in support of the cavalry effort.  General Howard's Corps is fast approaching and will be deployed in support and to the north of Gettysburg.
        Scouts report the roads are thick with more Rebel infantry moving in from the west and north.  We will do our best to stop this invasion, but without immediate, additional Corps support,  Reynolds and Howard's Corps will be hard pressed to hold this ground.  The heights just south of Gettysburg appear as excellent defensive ground should the enemy prove stubborn, forcing us to fallback to stronger positions.
        All courier messages will go through this headquarters, you will be informed of our troops arrivals and status as the situation progresses.
