Anderson's Brigade advanced from this point about 6/30 a.m., in support of Gibbon's, Phelps' and Patrick's Brigades of Doubleday's Division. Midway between the North Woods and the D.R. Miller house, the 10th Regiment was sent to the west about 700 yards to protect the flank of the Union line against a threatened advance of the enemy. The three remaining regiments became engaged with the enemy in the north edge of the cornfield south of the Miller house.
