Manigault's Brigade

Manigault's Brigade of Hindman's Division in Polk's Corps, commanded by Brig. Gen. Arthur M. Manigault, advanced on Sept. 20, 1863, at 11:20 A.M. Its center crossed the road at this point and marched toward the Widow Glenn's. Near that place, its left, the 24th, 28th, and 34th Alabama, was charged by Wilder's dismounted brigade, assisted by the 29th Indiana under Colonel Harrison, also dismounted, and was forced back east of the Lafayette Road. That portion of the brigade later advanced again, rejoined the 10th and 19th South Carolina, and the whole brigade proceeded to the vicinity of the Vittetoe house, where it formed on the left of Bushrod R. Johnson's division and took part that afternoon in the assault on Snodgrass Hill.
