SITE OF OLD ALLATOONA CHURCH

Extreme left of Federal line on the Dallas - New Hope front where
Johnston's & Sherman's forces had been in daily conflict
since May 25, 1864.

June 3. Hovey's (1st) Div., 23d A. C. [US] drove Armstrong's cavalry
[CS] from the road, thereby uncovering right of Confederate line
-- Walker's Div., Hardee's Corps -- near the Foster house
1 mile, S. W. Seizure of this road broke the 10-day stalemate & the opposing line
shifted East to the Kennesaw front.
