851:. Colonel Wilkes was wounded in the fighting and replaced by Lieutenant Colonel John T. Colt, then Major W. A. Taylor. The brigade lost 52 killed and 366 wounded. On the first day, Cleburne's division launched an attack near the Winfrey Field at 6:00 pm, only 10 minutes before sunset. Deshler's brigade lost track of the rest of the division, moving too far to the left. In the dark forest, Deshler's skirmish line blundered into a Federal brigade and the men were nearly all captured. However, in the darkness and confusion, some of the skirmishers escaped and one of Deshler's units helped capture some Union soldiers. On the second day, Deshler's brigade attacked Union soldiers that were protected by breastworks. Like the previous brigade that attacked, when they reached the crest of a rise, Deshler's men were stopped by murderous fire that inflicted severe casualties and the soldiers went to ground. Cleburne ordered Deshler to hold on as long as possible while the other brigade fell back to reform. As Deshler was moving along the line, he was hit by a shell and killed; he was replaced in command by Colonel 773: 112: 950:. The 24th-25th Consolidated Texas Cavalry Regiment led by Colonel Wilkes was separated from the 17th-18th Texas Cavalry, but the two units served in the same brigade. The other units in the brigade were the 6th-15th Texas, 7th Texas Infantry, and 10th Texas Infantry. Other leaders of the 24th-25th Texas Cavalry were Lieutenant-Colonel Neyland and Major Taylor during the campaign. On February 26, 1864, Granbury's brigade drove off a Union mounted regiment that had seized Dug Gap. On May 8, Granbury's brigade was sent back to Dug Gap where it repulsed a Union attack during the 859: 709:. The 25th Texas Cavalry was dismounted at about the same time. The 24th and 25th Texas Cavalry were both assigned to Colonel Robert R. Garland's infantry brigade. Confederate cavalrymen were supposed to provide their own horses and the order to dismount was very unpopular, with many soldiers threatening to desert or writing home about how they were mistreated. Hindman's heavy-handed efforts resulted in a respectable number of Confederate troops being made available to defend Arkansas, but it also resulted in Hindman's replacement as department commander by 82: 64: 855:. Soon afterward, a soldier from the 24th Texas reported to Mills that Wilkes was wounded in the right leg by shrapnel. For two and a half hours, the brigade held its position, while suffering severe losses. Finally, Mills pulled the brigade back out of the line of fire while the crest was manned only by sharpshooters. The 17th-18th-24th-25th Texas suffered 200 casualties during the ordeal. One soldier from the 24th Texas Cavalry stated that his company numbered 63 men but only 28 were left after the battle. 687: 907:
supporting Confederate battery and the fighting was desperate. Captain Samuel Foster of the 24th Texas Cavalry recorded, "This was business. We could see what we were doing. When we killed a man, we knew it. We saw him fall." The Texans counterattacked, sending the Union troops fleeing downhill, but Foster was hit in the leg and carried to the rear. A third Federal attack was made, but at 4 pm, a Confederate counterattack cleared the Union soldiers from the slopes of Tunnel Hill.
990: 986:. Since the rest of Cleburne's division followed Granbury's brigade, the attack miscarried. When the division regrouped, it was determined that the Federal defenses were too strong to assault successfully. On September 1, Union attackers overran Govan's brigade, capturing its commander and most of its soldiers. Seeing the disaster, Granbury quickly pulled back the right flank of his brigade and, with the help of another brigade, plugged the hole in the line. 939: 1031:. On December 13, Granbury's brigade was ordered to build a lunette north of the railroad tracks on the Confederate right flank. On December 15, the lunette, manned by about 300 men from Granbury's brigade repelled a Union attack. On December 16, Granbury's brigade was originally stationed on the extreme left flank. But, when the Federals attacked Overton Hill on the right flank, the brigades of Granbury and Lowrey were sent there as reinforcements. 975:, the brigades of Govan and Smith assaulted the Union flank and drove back an Iowa brigade. Govan's brigade lost too many men to go on, but Smith's Texans continued the charge against Bald Hill, a key position. A Union counterattack drove back the Texans, wounding Smith and nearly wiping out the 17th-18th Texas. The Confederates, including elements of the Texas brigade, made a final effort to seize Bald Hill late in the day, but failed to take it. 926:. Two Union regiments were stopped cold, but the third regiment tried to turn the right flank of the 17th-18th-24th-25th Texas. Anticipating the move, Major Taylor launched a counterattack which routed all three Federal regiments. Later, when two more Union regiments moved past his right flank, Taylor reported the situation to Granbury. In response, regiments from the brigades of Lowrey and Brigadier General 1016:
