Photographer: Library of Congress
Caption: George G. Meade
Additional Description: As his attack was faltering, Gen. George G. Meade called upon Gen. David Birney to bring up his division in support. When Birney failed to advance, the notoriously testy Meade rode to the rear and berated Birney in a tone that could "almost make the stones creep" underfoot. Birney hastily organized his division and pushed forward, but it was too little, too late.
