After four hours of fighting, Maj. Gen.Edward Johnson ordered three of his exhausted brigade to make a final push and overrun the Union entrenchments on Culp's Hill.
Nine Union infantry regiments held this section of the line, benefitting from sturdy earthworks. The 7th Ohio Infantry held a position overlooking the ravine between the upper and lower summits of Culp's Hill. They had just returned to the earthworks for a second time, replenished with ammunition. Known as the "Roosters" because of their distinctive brass rooster badges, they were commanded by Col. William R. Creighton, shown here listening to second in command, Lieut. Col. Orrin J. Crane.
Walker's Virginian brigade and Daniel's North Carolina brigade began crossing the ravine. Under heavy fire and in a disadvantageous position, the Confederates found shelter behind boulders and trees.
For half an hour the two sides fired at each other. Starting to run out of ammunition some Confederates close to the Union lines started to surrender. Maj. Benjamin W. Leigh (visible at the left centre in the painting) rode forward to shame the men into fighting on, only to be shot dead by Union musket fire.
With Leigh dead and the infantry lacking ammunition, facing mounting casualties and unable to continue the fight, 78 Confederates surrendered, while others retreated into the woods.
Johnson's Division had lost almost a third of it's men, the bulk of these on the slopes of Culp's Hill.
