Go to June 23 1864

Arizona Territory. Expedition to Fort Mojave ended.

Arkansas. USS Lexington, Acting Ensign Henry Booby, withstood a surprise attack by Confederate raiders at White River Station and forced the attacking troops to withdraw.

Georgia. Incident at Cheney’s Farm.

Kolb’s Farm, Georgia, also known as Kulp’s House, or Culp’s House. Union Major-General William Tecumseh Sherman had fixed the Confederate Army of Tennessee in place at Kennesaw Mountain with his centre, while he extended his right wing to envelop their flank. He aimed to turn the flank and to menace the Western & Atlantic Railroad beyond. The outflanking advance was made by Union Major-General John McAllister Schofield with the Army of the Ohio, reinforced by Major-General Joseph Hooker’s XX Corps. They approached Kolb’s Farm, four miles west of Marietta on the Powder Springs Road, and Schofield took the precaution of digging in while patrols looked for the best route along the valley of Olley’s Creek to hit the railroad near Smyrna Station.
Confederate General Joseph Eggleston Johnston had countered this threat by moving Lieutenant-General John Bell Hood’s Corps overnight from his right flank to the left. The newly prepared Confederate entrenchments were held by the dismounted cavalry of Major-General Joseph Wheeler until Hood’s arrival. Arriving in his new position, south of Kennesaw Mountain at Mount Zion Church, Hood unexpectedly encountered enemy troops approaching on the Powder Springs Road and decided to attack them on his own initiative. During the early afternoon, Confederate Major-General Carter Littlepage Stevenson, commanding one of Hood’s divisions, advanced his division from its campsite near Mount Zion Church towards Kolb’s Farm, which lay on the south side of the Powder Springs Road. Stevenson reported heavy skirmish fire from two Union regiments, the 14th Kentucky Infantry and 123rd New York Infantry. Shortly afterwards, Hood ordered his entire Corps, the three divisions of Stevenson, Major-General Alexander Peter Stewart, and Major-General Thomas Carmichael Hindman, to advance west along the Powder Springs Road, driving the Union forces before them. Hood believed that he had either passed beyond the Union far right flank and was in an excellent position to make a flanking attack by attacking west and then north; or, that the Union troops in the area were still in marching columns and vulnerable to attack. Confederate cavalry forces in the area reported the presence of considerable numbers of Union infantry in the area, and not just the two outpost regiments encountered by Stevenson, but this information did not reach Hood in time to change his intentions.
Hood’s Corps, with a total force of around 11,000 men, deployed with Stevenson’s division south of the Powder Springs Road and Hindman’s north of it. Stewart’s division remained behind in support. Meanwhile, Hooker had received prior warning of Hood’s approach and had already begun to entrench his XX Corps to oppose it. His three divisions were led by Major-General John White Geary, Brigadier-General Alpheus Starkey Williams, and Major-General Daniel Butterfield. Williams’ division was placed astride the Powder Springs Road and would face the brunt of the coming attack. Geary’s division was positioned on Williams’ left, and Butterfield’s division was behind Geary’s left, in reserve. Hooker’s total force numbered around 15,000 men, significantly outnumbering their attackers.
Hood launched his attack sometime after 3 pm. The 14th Kentucky Infantry and 123rd New York Infantry were still on picket duty and fell back from the initial onslaught, although they managed to inflict heavy losses on the left flank of Stevenson’s division. Two brigades on the left of Stevenson’s division were forced to pause after driving away these Union skirmishers and took no further part in the coming attack. The other half of Stevenson’s division emerged from the woods to the north of the road where it had begun its advance and appeared in a more open area around Kolb’s Farm. As they came into sight, forty Union guns opened heavy fire on them. Facing strongly entrenched infantry and overwhelming artillery, Stevenson’s force lost its formation, and many casualties, and was forced to withdraw. Falling back to a position near a ravine and along a shallow creek bed, they were caught again in an enfilade fire from the Union artillery and suffered further losses. Stevenson held on until nightfall and then withdrew to the east.
Meanwhile, Hindman’s attack north of the Dallas Road fared equally badly. A patch of marshy ground disrupted his advance and he was forced to withdraw shortly after Union artillery found the range of his division, even before it came within range of Williams’ infantry. The Confederates entrenched where they had halted in their advance rather than reaching their intended destination.
Total Confederate casualties in the battle were between 1,200 and 1,500 men (at least 800 of them in Stevenson’s division). The Union suffered between 300 and 500 casualties. Despite the victory, Sherman’s turning movement had been blocked by Hood’s arrival. Sherman could not turn the Confederate left without abandoning his supply line and he was forced to consider other options to defeat the powerful Confederate position at Kennesaw Mountain.

New Mexico Territory. Expedition to Gila ended.

North Carolina. Union reconnaissance from Piney Green to Snead’s Ferry and Swanboro began. Union cavalry was ambushed on the road through a swamp but managed to burn a Confederate schooner laden with salt.

North Carolina. Skirmish at Southwest Creek.

Utah Territory. Expedition from Fort Crittenden ended.

Virginia. Raid to Danville Railroad began.

Virginia. Skirmishes at Balto Cross Roads, Germantown, Liberty, Ream’s Station, Salem, and Dinwiddie Court House.

Virginia. Confederate Lieutenant-Colonel John Singleton Mosby’s raiders captured Duffield’s Depot on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, taking fifty prisoners, and then captured nineteen more prisoners near Harper’s Ferry.

Virginia. US President Abraham Lincoln travelled to City Point, after a meeting with Major-General Benjamin Franklin Butler, and boarded a steamer bound for Washington, DC.

Virginia. Expedition to the Southside Railroad began. The Union cavalry divisions of Brigadier-General James Harrison Wilson and Brigadier-General August Valentine Kautz set out at dawn from the Petersburg lines to disrupt Confederate rail communications. Riding via Dinwiddie Court House, the raiders cut the Southside Railroad near Ford’s Station that evening, destroying the tracks, the railroad buildings, and two supply trains.

Virginia. Union Major-General Philip Henry Sheridan’s two cavalry divisions left White House and began to cross the Chickahominy River. Their aim was to divert the attention of the Confederate cavalry east of Richmond.

Virginia. Confederate Lieutenant-General Jubal Anderson Early abandoned his pursuit of Major-General David Hunter’s force into West Virginia and changed course for Staunton, launching the last great Confederate offensive in the Shenandoah Valley.

Jerusalem Plank Road, Virginia, also known as First Battle of Weldon or Weldon Railroad. Union Lieutenant-General Ulysses Simpson Grant launched his operation to extend his lines at Petersburg further west in order to cut one of the Confederate supply lines. Union Major-General David Bell Birney’s II Corps and Major-General Horatio Gouverneur Wright’s VI Corps aimed to advance to their left to cut the Weldon Railroad. In the difficult wooded terrain, each corps was obliged to operate independently and protect its own flanks. While Confederate Major-General Cadmus Marcellus Wilcox’s division demonstrated against VI Corps and made it give ground, Lieutenant-General Ambrose Powell Hill sent Major-General William Mahone’s division and Major-General Bushrod Rust Johnson’s division against II Corps.
At 3 pm, Mahone’s division followed a concealed route along a ravine into the rear of the Union II Corps division of Brigadier-General Francis Channing Barlow. When they emerged. they achieved a complete surprise. Barlow’s division collapsed quickly and the neighbouring division of Brigadier-General John Gibbon, which was erecting earthworks, was also surprised by this unexpected attack from the rear. Many regiments panicked and fled the threat. Six Union guns were captured in the flight. Mahone sent an urgent message to Wilcox, asking him to join in the attack but Wilcox was concerned about the presence of VI Corps on his own front and the two regiments he could spare arrived too late to make a difference. The II Corps troops rallied around the earthworks that they had constructed the previous night and reformed their lines. Darkness ended the fighting. Gibbon explained the collapse of his division by saying that in the seven weeks of campaigning since crossing the Rapidan, the division originally numbering 6,799 men had lost 7,970 casualties, indicating both heavy losses in veteran soldiers and their almost complete replacement by inexperienced and less hardy conscripts.
