After fighting Heg's Brigade over an hour, the left of Gregg's Brigade reached this ground. The two right regiments, 3rd and 41st Tennessee, having preserved their connection with Johnson's Brigade, swung to the right and separated from their Brigade. General Gregg, riding forward to the LaFayette road was wounded in the edge of the woods near the road, and Colonel Sugg took command. The general engagement on that part of the field continued with severity until the arrival of Union reinforcements, and at sunset the Confederate forces withdrew



into the forest, about 600 yards east of Viniard's.
