(3-02)  Long meander scar near the Big Black River east of the Confederate defense left flank. This very well could be the Meander Scar used by Lawler's brigade before assaulting the Confederate defense. From here the left flank of the defense is approximately 0.5 mi. away. The view is looking west toward the left flank. See below for link to March 2003 photos of the scar at a point farther west
