A point on the intrenched line of Loring´s (formerly Polk´s) A.C., [CS] which extended from the mtn. down its E. slope to the Bell´s Ferry Rd. This sector was held by Featherston´s div. -- the rt. of the corps, Hood´s A.C. [CS] prolonged the line E. beyond the Canton Rd., where Wheeler´s cav. [CS] was posted. June 21, Featherston extended E. to occupy the line vacated by Hood´s A.C. when it was shifted to the left of the line below Kennesaw, on Powder Springs road.
June 27. Featherston & Wheeler withstood a spirited attack by the 17th A.C., which advanced S. from the Brushy Mountain area.
