Scott's Brigade taking casualties fro the British guns.

 While the British are content to hold their present position and engage in an artillery duel, MGen Brown orders up the L.D. and divisional artillery.

Brigadier-General Porter arrives at the American camp in the hope of rallying the N.Y Volunteers to join the remaining elements of his brigade who are heavily engaged with Pearson's Light brigade.

 

In summary the main part of the battlefield has settled down to an artillery duel while Pearson's Light Brigade has been steadily pushing back Porter's Indians and Volunteers. It remains to be seen if Porter can rally his remaining militia units and perhaps go on the offensive against Pearson's Light Brigade.
