Liddell's Brigade

After withdrawing from the ground of its morning fighting because of Croxton's Union Brigade's attack on its left flank, Liddell's Brigade took position on this line. At 3 o'clock on September 19, 1863, with Walthall's Brigade on its left, it advanced against the Union line on the high ground to its front. The brunt of the attack fell on Walthall's portion of the line, which gained the ridge in the immediate proximity of the Union line but was repulsed after a brief engagement. Both brigades then bivouacked on the ground from which their advance had been made.
