After overcoming sharp resistance from John Beatty's and Stanley's Union brigades Adams' brigade reached this line Stovall's brigade somewhat retired on its left in the Kelly field. Here Stovall was attacked in front and Adams on the left flank by a sudden charge of Van Derveer's brigade assisted on its right by an oblique fire of canister from Goodspeed's Ohio battery and on its left by Stanley's brigade. Under this attack both brigades withdrew to a position near their morning line. In the final assault late in the afternoon this brigade advanced in the center of its division and pursued the Union troops into the woods west of the Chattanooga road.
