July 20. 1864. The right of Gen. S. F. French's div. of Stewart's A. C. [CS] rested on DeFoor's Fy. Rd. — the left, being at Casey's Hill 1.5 miles W., during the Battle of Peachtree Creek.

While Walthall's & Loring's divs. attacked the Federal 20th A. C. at Collier Rd., French's 3 brigades were on Walthall's left, & by demonstrations in force engaged the attention of the 14th A. C. [US], thereby preventing its unlimited participation in the battle.

The high knoll west of here (at Davis' Circle), topped by a formidable redoubt, was a part of French's entrenched line.
