On the morning of Oct. 19, 1864, a brigade commanded by Genl. Stephen Thomas advanced across the Pike, engaged the enemy near and beyond this point, and before sunrise lost 110 men killed and wounded. Three color bearers were shot down, and 13 of 16 commissioned officers were lost among 164 men engaged. The site was dedicated in Sept. 1885 as a gift of Herbert E. Hill.
