Battery F
We soon got our pieces in battery, and the old 6th Michigan had fired but a few rounds when it got too hot for them and they retreated, leaving one gun in our possession. The army had nearly all crossed the river by the 12th, and we marched about three miles and again threw up a line of works in front of the enemy. On the 17th we again advanced three and a half miles, where more works were thrown up. The morning of the 18th we resumed the march, and crossing the Nancy and Peachtree creeks, encountered the rebels in force in front of Decatur, at noon on the 10th.
