Commissary Trains Under Attack: Lowell's Cross Roads, Day 3 - 3:15 p.m.

The Federal infantry has four regiments engaged. Two are along a wood line, firing east into the Tennessee regiment north of two. One is across the Jersey Mountain Road firing west into  the second Confederate regiment to arrive. A fourth Federal regiment came through the woods, flanking the Confederates on Jersey Mountain Road. They turned to face the new threat, only to take flanking fire from the enemy across the road at the top of the hill. The Confederates broke and began to flee to the south.

As the infantry fought, a running battle was taking place on the Old Romney road to the east. Federal cavalry came out of the woods and attacked the Confederate commissary train as it was on the move, capturing several wagons. The Confederate train guards counter-attacked, recovering some of the wagons and driving off the Union troopers.

With the Confederate regiment on Jersey Mountain Road driven back, the Federal regiment that had been engaging it was able to turn and fire on the Tennessee men north of town.

The Confederates are in a tough position, but another Confederate regiment is approaching up the Jersey Mountain Road. Will they make it in time?

The engagement continues...
