It was the sickest victory they ever got.

About one more victory of that kind would make their infernal old Confederacy ready for a coroner's inquest.

Well, I can tell you pretty much all about that fight, for I reckon if the truth was known, our regiment fired about the first and last shot that opened and closed the fighting on that day.
Well, you see the whole Army got across the river, and were closing in around the City of Atlanta.

Our Corps, the Seventeenth, was the extreme left of the army, and were moving up toward the City from the East.
The Fifteenth (Logan's) Corps joined us on the right, then the Army of the Cumberland further to the right.

We run onto the Rebs about sundown the 21st.
