INTRENCHED. July 20, 1864. Wheeler's thin gray line of dismounted cavalry [CSA] was the rt. flank of Atlanta's defenders. Forced W. from Clay St. in the afternoon by Blair's 17th A.C., [Union] Wheeler's line ran S. from the Ga. R.R. to this hill. July 21. Before dawn, Wheeler was replaced by Cleburne's div. (Hardee's A.C.) [CSA] which was shifted from Peachtree Cr. battlefield to meet the advance of the Federals from Decatur. Blair's 17th A.C., resuming the offensive, made its main attack upon the hill.
