Under Maj. Gen. Daniel H. Hill, D.H. Hill's Division of Jackson's Command withdrew from South Mountain during the night of September 14, 1862, crossed the Antietam at the Middle Bridge at daylight on the 15th, and formed a line facing the Antietam on the high ground east of this road, with its right near the Boonsboro Pike and its left on the Hagerstown Pike near the Bloody Lane. On September 15 and 16 it supported artillery engaged with Federal batteries beyond Antietam. Late on September 16, the brigades of Colquitt and Ripley moved to the left and occupied the fields near Mumma's House, connecting with the right of Hood's Division.
