Moore's Brigade, during the battles of Baker's Creek and Big Black bridge, guarded the river front at Warrenton and the approaches from the lower ferries on the Big Black River, after which the brigade was drawn in at once and placed in the intrenchments on each side of the Baldwin's Ferry road. There they sustained and repulsed determined assaults on May 22. From that time till the close of the siege (forty-seven days) the men were confined to the trenches night and day under a fire of musketry and artillery, which was often kept up during the whole night as well as the day. General Moore wrote: "Some idea may be formed of the artillery fire to which we were exposed when I state that a small party sent out for that purpose collected some two thousand shells near and in the rear of the trenches occupied by our brigade. This was soon after the siege began and was but a portion of those that failed to explode." Toward the end of this service, the men were exhausted both in mind and body. They had been forty-seven days in a narrow ditch, exposed to scorching heat during the day and the often chilling air and dews of night. To the inquiry July 2, regarding the possibility of cutting a way out, Colonels Barry and Colbert joined in the reply that the men were incapable of the effort. The casualties of the Thirty-fifth during the siege were 3 officers (Captains S. R. Coopwood and H. M. Walsh and Lieutenant G. Moody) and 17 enlisted men killed, 4 officers and 78 enlisted men wounded. The brigade included the Thirty-seventh, Fortieth and Forty-second Alabama, Second Texas, Sengstak's and Tobin's Batteries and a pioneer company. The brigade had 121 killed and surrendered 4,368. Lieut.-Col. C. R. Jordan paroled as commanding officer.
