U. S. Civil War
Fifteenth Regiment Infantry
Marching via
Marietta to Rossville, the regiment crossed to the south side of the Chatta-hoochee river on the 14th. On the 17th it moved to Cross Keys, and on the 18th marched towards Decatur, going into line of battle, though not becoming engaged. On the 20th it moved forward, via Decatur, several miles, and on that and the following day, engaged in skirmishing with the enemy. The enemy attacked in force about noon of the 22d, and a severe engagement ensued, the regiment capturing two rebel battle-flags and 176 prisoners; its loss being four killed and six wounded.
