e could have wished, was made exceedingly pleasant by meeting many old comrades, and by being made to feel that our Society has a warm place in the affections of the people, and that they mean to give practical proof of their appreciation of our work by subscribing to our Papers and sending us material for our archives. Where all were so kind, it might not seem proper to particularize; but we must mention especially Captain R. E. Park, Captain T. L. Massenburg, Mr. Charley Herbst, Rev. Dr. E. W. Warren, Rev. S. Boykin, and the editors of the Telegraph and Messenger of Macon. Mr. Herbst is Librarian of the Macon Library Association, and his enthusiasm for everything pertaining to the Confederacy, together with his intelligent zeal, has enabled him to gather a very interesting and valuable collection of war material, while there is no danger that the young men of Macon who come in contact with him will ever forget the boys in gray.

Dahlgren stated that on discovering the purport of the dispatch and appreciating its importance he rode as fast as his horse could carry him to General Meade's headquarters in front of Gettysburg. On arriving there shortly after midnight he found that the General had been consulting with his corps commanders, and had resolved to withdraw his army to Pipe creek, the position that had been previously selected by General Warren, his chief of engineers, and in pursuance of that plan was then engaged in retiring his heaviest pieces of artillery from the front. A perusal of the dispatch captured and presented by Dahlgren wrought a sudden change in Meade's plans, and the artillery was quickly ordered back to the positions from which it had been withdrawn, and the Federal army made ready to recommence the battle on the following morning.
