The Brigade formed on the line early Sunday morning with Bate's Brigade refused on its right, and McNair's Brigade of Johnson's Division on its left.

Clayton's Brigade was in its rear on the next ridge. At 11 o'clock the line moved forward toward the Poe Field, and soon came under heavy fire from Brannan's line in its front, and Reynolds' on its right flank. Wood's Brigade of Cleburne's Division went forward on Brown's right. After severe fighting the line was repulsed from in front of Brannan's barricades on the west side of the Poe Field. The troops withdrew to their morning line and remained there until ordered at 5 o'clock to rearrange their lines for an advance toward the Kelly Field. Although the attack by the Brigades of Stewart's Division



was repulsed, it was a very vigorous and determined one.
