Late on 2 July General Meade called a council of war to discuss the situation with his generals. Meade told General John Gibbon whose division held the center of the Federal line, 'if Lee attacks tomorrow, ' he said 'it will be on your front.' Asked why, he replied, 'Because he has made attacks on both our flanks and failed, and if he concludes to try again, it will be on our. center.' His words were to prove prophetic.
