BATTLE OF KOLB'S FARM

June 22, 1864

The 3 brigades of Williams' (1st) Div., 20th A. C., [US] were posted on the high ground W. of the road between this point and the Powder Springs Road.

Geary's (2d) Div. [US] right joined Williams at the ravine West of the Greer house, his artillery sweeping the low ground.

Brown's & Reynold's brigades of Stevenson's Div. [CS] assaulted the left of Williams' line by way of the ravine -- trying to turn his left, but the 20th A. C. artillery broke up the assault and the two [CS] brigades withdrew.
