rdfs:label	Henry Heth
rdfs:comment	Henry "Harry" Heth ( not ; December 16, 1825 – September 27, 1899) was a career United States Army officer, a Confederate general in the American Civil War, and a cousin of George Pickett. Heth worked closely with Robert E. Lee, who made him a divisional commander. He is generally blamed for accidentally starting the Battle of Gettysburg before Lee was ready. Against orders, he sent forward a reconnaissance force that collided with Union troops and was beaten back. Heth insisted that he had wanted to capture a local shoe-factory, to equip Lee’s barefoot army, but historians doubt this claim.
