This Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Elhanon M. Mast commanding, became heavily engaged in this position about 3:00 P.M. September 19th, 1863. About 4:00 P.M. being simultaneously assailed in front and on the right flank, it was forced to retire and rallied on the ridge west of the road. It was soon again forced to retire and reformed on the hill west of the Crawfish Springs Road; Lieutenant Colonel Mast being killed and Major Snider wounded, the command devolved thereafter on Captain Cosgrove.

September 20th, 1863, about 12:00 M. the Regiment was broken. About 100 men under Captain Cosgrove with the colors, afterward rallied and fought till the close of the battle, on the hill to the south-west of the Snodgrass House.
