May14: Stewart´s Div., Hood´s Corps [CSA] moved from intrenchments near the John Green house and attacked left of Federals then extending toward the State R.R.

This attack fell upon the left of Stanley´s (1st) div., 4th A.C., and 5th Ind. Battery [USA] (on ridge NW). The timely arrival of Williams´ (1st) div., 20th A.C. [USA], checked Stewart´s [CSA] advance and stabilized the left flank of the Federal forces.

May 15: Stewart [CSA] repeated attack of 14th-the assault falling on Williams´ div. [USA] astride road here-and with like result.
