The presiding oflicor was Colonel. J. J. Phillips of tho Ninth Virginia regiment, Pickett's division. Hej was speaking of night attacks and
recalled one in particular, not because of its startling horrors, but because of a peculiar circumstance, almost resulting in tho compulsory disobedienco of orders tho obeying, as it were, of a higher command than that of earth. "Tho point of attack had been carefully selected," said Colonel Phillips, "the awaited dark night had arrived, and my command was to fire when General Pickett should signal the order. "Thero was that dread, indescribable stillness, that weird, ominous sience, that always settles over everything before a fight. You felt
