Bate's Brigade relieved Brown's about 3:30 o'clock, on this ground. It first encountered Grose's Brigade, and next struck portions of Edward King's Brigade, and after severe fighting pushed them back through the Poe Field. The left of the Brigade crossed the Lafayette Road and forced troops extended by Reynolds upon his left out of their line, capturing a battery of three guns. This portion of Bate's troops was soon withdrawn in consequence of the appearance of Brannan's Division in rear of Reynolds. The three right regiments of the Brigade, swinging somewhat further to the north, upon entering the Poe Field, encountered a fire from twenty guns supported by troops rallied from Grose's and King's Brigades, and were there checked and turned back with heavy losses.
