On June 2, 1864, pressure by the 23rd A. C. [US] on the right of Johnston’s line [CS] forced the right of Hardee’s Corps [CS] east of the Dallas-Acworth road, enabling Schofield [US] to gain a position near the Foster House. Failing to get promised support from the 20th A. C. [US], Schofield was unable to pursue his advantage, and night found Hardee’s forces still holding the right of the line. This movement was in line with the Federal drive to outflank Johnston and force his withdrawal east to the R. R. Heavy rains began and continued until June 19.
