On September 17, 1862, Rodes' Brigade, including the 3rd, 5th, 6th, 12th, and 26th Alabama Infantry, fought at the Bloody Lane after bivouacking on the night of September 16 in the field east of Piper's house. With G.B. Anderson's brigade supporting its right and remnants of the brigades of Colquitt and Garland on its left, it withstood several assaults by French's Division of Sumner's Corps until Richardson's Division turned its right flank, forcing it to retire toward Sharpsburg.
