Hazen's Brigade

On September 19, 1863, being relieved in the Brock Field soon after 3 p.m. by Turchin's Brigade, Hazen's Brigade of Palmer's Division, Crittenden's Corps, under Brigadier General William B. Hazen, retired to the Poe Field to replenish ammunition. Three of its regiments, the 9th Indiana, the 124th Ohio, and the 41st Ohio, were dispatched to the Brotherton Field to assist Dick's and Samuel Beatty's Brigades, and were forced back with those troops by the advance of Clayton's and Bate's Brigades of Stewart's Division. The brigade was finally assembled near the Poe House, and at dusk was dispatched to the assistance of Johnson's and Baird's Divisions, then heavily engaged in the vicinity of the Winfrey House. Their help was not needed, as the fighting soon ceased, and Palmer's Division bivouacked on the east line of the Kelly Field near its southern limits.
