Text on the Back Side of the Monument:

This regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Henry D. Stratton commanding, held this position from 2:00 P.M. until 4:30 P.M. September 19th, 1863. During that time it assisted in capturing a six gun Battery and took twenty prisoners. It was then forced to retire across the Rossville Road, where it reformed on the ridge on the West side of the road: after a brief contest there, it was again forced to retire, and reformed on the ridge near the Crawfish Springs Road.

September 20th, it was in reserve and was broken about 12:00 M. by the retirement of the troops in its front. It was not rallied again as a Regiment until evening. It partially rallied however, in squads, which with fragments of other Regiments, remained fighting until dark.

Loss, Killed 7; Wounded 60; Captured or Missing 23; Total 90.
