<FONT=MsgFont,L,20,20,20>General Lee,
        I have two more brigades available now, they will be committed as needed.  We're meeting more stubborn resistance as we near the town, this is more than militia, US regulars have been spotted on the ridge to our front.

At 8 A.M., John Buford’s scouts reported Heth’s advance on Cashtown road. Although Buford’s Union forces were outnumbered, they were equipped with Spencer repeating Carbines which gave them a five-to-one firepower superiority. The dismounted Union cavalry fought the large number of advancing Confederate forces, stubbornly holding on to McPherson’s Ridge.
After two long hours, the Union First Corps arrived with General Reynolds. Reynolds sent messengers to Meade telling him of the large enemy force. As part of the First Corps reinforcements were the proud First Brigade of the First Division of the First Corps, Meridith’s Iron Brigade; along with Cutler’s Second Brigade of well disciplined Pennsylvania and New York regiments. Reynolds replaced Buford’s weary cavalry with Cutler’s brigade on the right and Meridith’s brigade on the left. While General Reynolds was directing an attack, he was shot behind the ear by a Confederate sharp-shooter. He gasped once, smiled-and died. Second-in-command to Reynolds, General Doubleday assumed command of the Union forces.
