that would be Robert E. Lee Answer Two brigades of Confederate Maj. Gen. Henry Heth division (of Lt. Gen. A.P. Hill's Third Corps) were delayed by dismounted Union cavalrymen under Brig. Gen. John Buford. However, General Lee was not far away and arrived on the scene later that morning. Good referencee book: Harry W. Pfanz "Gettysburg; the first day"
