Sept 19th

Liddell continues his advance.  The isolated 94th Ohio is easily pushed aside by Walthall.  Starkweather, continues to move his brigade in the face of the enemy, pulling back his brigade in a semi-circle.  The standard Federal deployment of two regiments in the front and two in the rear in support severely handicaps the brigade.  Govan’s brigade charges Starkweather before he can bring his two support regiments to extend his line (if Starkweather even thought of doing so), and the constant moving with the enemy so close unnerves his men.  They break and run without much of a fight.  The 4th Indiana Battery is abandoned and captured.

General King begins to redeploy his brigade so that it faces south.  Colonel Croxton, also hearing the fighting, marches his brigade along the farm lane (which many still think is Reed’s Bridge Road) and begin to deploy facing south.
