H'dq'rs., Maj. Gen. Joseph B. Hooker, commanding Federal 20th A. C., May 7, - 9, 1864.

These troops, having crossed Taylor's Ridge, May 7, moved E. to this vicinity. Williams' 1st & Butterfield's 3d divs. camped in Dogwood Valley near Trickum; Geary's 2d div; at the Thornton farm, one mi. S.

The 20th A.C. occupied the Federal sector between Mill Creek Gap & Villanow, during Sherman's move toward Rocky Face. Demonstrations were made at both Mill Creek Gap & Dug Gap, May 8 — the latter, 5 mi. S.E., being the scene of Geary's vain attempt to dislodge the Arkansas & Kentucky defenders, while McPherson's troops occupied Snake Creek Gap.
