Text of marker: "CONFEDERATE LINE. Here, the intrenched line held by Gen. J. E. Johnston's forces [Confederate] during the fighting on the Dallas-New Hope Church front crossed the road; line erected and occupied May 26 and abandoned June 4, 1864. Three of the 10 miles of this line were on the summit of Ellsberry Mountain, N.E. In the 10 days of constant fighting between Confederate and Federal forces, no advantage was gained -- a stalemate that was broken by Shreman's [Federal] flanking movement around the Confederate right at Old Allatoona Church 11 miles N.E. in Cobb County. 110-11 GEORGIA HISTORIC MARKER 1983" - External Identifiers:
