Sir:—The Commissioners ap pointed by your Excellency un der Joint Resolution 51, Public Laws, 1913, respectfully mike the following report of their ac tions and proceedings: In relays the members of the Commission, between June 19 and July 3, 1913, visited Gettys burg, Pennsylvania, and the fields around the place upon which were fought the great battles of July |1, 2 and 3, 1963. The Commissioners had no dif ficulty in identify the several points and positions on those battlefields where North Carolina soldiers marched and fought,« and they are satisfied after a careful examination and inspec tion of the grounds, of of!icial*re- ports of those battles [made by officers, Union and Confederate, and after ths ^examination of witness who were participants, that North Carolina’s claims that her troops bore the brunt of t e first day's battle and suffered greater losses in killed aiid wwinded in the t3iree day a battle and suffered frreaterlo$»ses in killed and wounded is the three day^s battles than did the troops of any Sother State; that OB the late evening of JJuly ^dr tfeey p^rced and broke the Fed* eral infantry lines on Bast Cemetery Hill .and captured ae- veral pieces of s^tillery; and thatflhey advanced as far, os* further, than any other troops eng^ed in.; Longttreet's Assault on the afternoon of the third day*« battle are all founded. To mark by substantial tablets the several positions of |the North Carolina troops which the Commissioners wish to emplha- size, was denied them by the Gettysburg National Park Com mission under their regulations concerning the location of tablets and monuments proposed to be erectedjon the battlefield and the inscriptions on such tablets and monuments. The decision of the Gettysburg National Park Commission was not made on the ground that North Carolina's claims are not accurate and true. That question was not considered. The Commissioners had gone to Gettsburg with tablets of a temporary character alredy pre pared for the purposes above mentioned to be substitute \ af terwards by more permanent ones of stones or bronze. They carried with them also other material and fthings necessary for the carrying out of the above mentioned resoiution. LIST OFwiiD LEHERS Remaining in Post office at Burlington, N.
