The 41st Virginia took up a position with the rest of a brigade halfway between Shady Grove Church and Pole Green Church behind Totopotomoy Creek, but most of Grant's fighting took place to its right. Then most of the Army of the Potomac disappeared from the line, and reappeared to the south, headed towards Cold Harbor on the road to Richmond, but were stopped there by Anderson. His Division, still being led by Mahone, was moved to support him as a reserve force. On June 3, Grant launched an all out attack on the Confederate lines and Major Etheridge led the 41st Virginia to reinforce the division of John C. Breckinridge as it bloodily repulsed the Union charge.
