On November 25, 1863, Sherman's Brigade of Sheridan's Division in Granger's Corps, commanded by Colonel Francis T. Sherman, took part in the general assault with the right of Sheridan's Division, its left resting on the Moore road (Montgomery Avenue), Harker's Brigade on its left, and Stoughton's brigade of Johnson's Division on the right. Formed in four lines and strongly covered by skirmishers, it carried two lines of earthworks at the foot of the ridge and halted at the second line for instructions. Soon ordered forward again, it carried the crest, helped capture a battery and many prisoners, bivouacked on the summit, and at midnight was ordered forward in pursuit.
