No It was probably the regiment known as the 3rd Regiment, NW District of Arkansas. The 23rd was already east of the Miss being organized in April in Memphis. Adams left and came back and organized a new regiment as above. More than likely Pike referred to this one. It was primarily made of conscripts from northern Arkansas and performed so poorly at Prairie Grove it fled and many deserted. It was broken up after this and it’s remnant distrubuted to another regiment.
