THE SOUTH: On June 28th the army begins crossing the mountains. The army takes up a position south of Gettysburg, and improves it over the next few days. On July 2nd, just as the command is giving up hope of luring the Union army north, the Yanks appear and the fight is on. THE NORTH: The army shifts north from Frederick, Maryland on June 30th. The Cavalry Corps leads the advance which is made in three columns along the Taneytown road, via Westminster, and north from Manchester. The advance is by the center, with five corps taking that route, with one corps each on the left and the right. The advance finds positions well south of Gettysburg occupied by the Confederate army which is present in strength.
