The Battle of Massard Prairie was a battle of the American Civil War. It was fought on July 27, 1864, at Massard Prairie in Sebastian County, Arkansas, near Fort Smith. Confederate troops led by Brigadier-General Richard Montgomery Gano successfully launched a surprise attack on a Union camp held by four companies of the 6th Kansas Cavalry, capturing prisoners and equipment. The battle exemplified the hit-and-run nature of the Civil War in Arkansas on the western border: this was a war of raids and ambushes involving small forces, not drawn-out, large-scale battles. As a Confederate victory, it also demonstrated the difficulty faced by Union units attempting to exert control over the state during the war's later stages.
