(HISTORICAL) -- ELKHORN TAVERN (Pea Ridge) March 7, 1862 -- (4:20p) While Federal forces were fighting and winning the Leetown battle 2 miles to the west, Southern forces were slowly pressing back the thin Union defenses in Cross Timber Hollow. The Federal position was anchored at Elkhorn Tavern, where a small cache of supplies was stored. By late afternoon, Price's State Guard and Confederate divisions were finally able to outflank and defeat their opponents and capture the important tavern position.
