Battery F
Line of battle was formed and a battery got into position, and the ball opened so hot that in less than two hours we had driven them back across the railroad, and our corps took possession of it and the town, thereby cutting off communication with Richmond and the east by the Georgia Central route.
" At evening the 16th corps came up and relieved us, when we moved out on the Atlanta road one mile and bivouacked for the night. We were on the move at early dawn of the 20th, but after advancing a short distance we encountered the enemy, and with some fighting and a great deal of heavy skirmishing succeeded in advancing our lines some three miles nearer the city.
