Michigan in the Civil War
SEVENTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
The second brigade being in advance formed in line of battle, and advancing half a mile came upon the enemy in strong force. After a very gallant fight, finding the enemy too strong, reinforcements were demanded, when the 17th Michigan was ordered to advance as soon as possible. They moved on double-quick up the hill, passing by the first line of troops. As they marched up the 2d brigade gave us three hearty cheers.
