Battle of Resaca

At the Battle of Resaca, a portion of Hood's A. C. (CS), thrust forward to hold the ridge in the fork of the creek, was driven back to the hills on this side of the valley and north of the road. Cox's (3d) Div., 23d A. C. (US), having taken the ridge in the creek fork, was relieved by 4th A.C., which with 20th A. C. troops (US) moved east, seizing the area between the creek and the State R.R. near the Conasauga River. This movement completed the Federal alignment parallel to the Confederate line north and west of Resaca.
