Posey's and Mahone's brigades were to advance as soon as the others became actively engaged, but failed to do so, and therefore Pender, who was to follow after them, did not move forward.

Hence the great effort of Wilcox and Wright, which would have been ruinous to us if followed up, was fruitless of results.
Both were repulsed for lack of support, but Wright actually reached the crest with his Georgians and turned a gun, whose cannoneers had been shot, upon Webb's brigade of the Second Corps.

Webb gave him two staggering volleys from behind a fence, and went forward with two regiments.

He charged, regained the lost piece, and turned it upon them.

Wright, finding himself entirely isolated in this advanced position, went back again to the main line, and Wilcox did the same.
