".,• captain Miller, with about eight men from the Third Pennsylvania cavalry. - was stationed on the barb* of the Get , fysburg "fishhook" to help defend the .-right wing of General Meade's army. '4-aptair. Miller, like the other officers >on the barb," had strict orders not to •leave his position, for it was highly >important to keep # any part of the Con ✓federate cavalry from breaking through -'•'and getting to the wagon trains in the /rear of the center, which? was defend uing Cemetery Ridge. V The beginning of Pickett's charge? •was a signal for General J. E. P. Stu • art to advance on the extreme union ? right, commanded by General D. McM. Gregg and consisting; of about 4,000 tsnen. By breaking through or'turning ■ the union right General Stuart would have had the amunltion trains at hit j n*)ercy and would have been directly in 1 the rear of the lines defending '>~ tery Ridge. ;' The head of the attacking column 1i ad already passed the place' where ■ Captain Miller and his men were hid- ing In the woods when Captain Miller 1 grasped the situation. "I have been ordered to hold this position," he said to his .lieutenant,* William Brook Rawle of : Philadelphia, ' "but if you will back me up; in case I am courtmartialed for disobedience ' I will ; orde** a charge." /CHARGE BY LITTLE BAND V Lieutenant Rawle' agreed, and Cap tain Miller's little band charged the Confederates. This unexpected charge * caught the gray, lines at a right angle,* >r-ut -them In two, threw them into and separated from them for Ca time a? third of the supporting force? »-*rhe confederate "column wavered, other /*jjmlon cavalry j officers followed ? < 'ap- r '.-ta'ln Miller's example and in a short time the gray forces, * broken and dis comfited, were making their way hack to the old position. Captain y Miller's , command; carried by its "own force* far '.through the enemy's lines, consisted of only the leader and four men when the Jchargerwas ended. - * ':-?
