Marker text:
On May 19, 1864, Johnston entrenched on the ridge east of
this marker, planned to give battle, but Sherman threatened his flank and
his corps commanders objected to the position. He therefore withdrew to
Allatoona Pass. Rather than attack this strong position Sherman moved past
it toward New Hope Church.
