Logan reinforced Hovey with one brigade from his division; with his other two he moved farther west to make room for Crocker, who was coming up as rapidly as the roads would admit.

Hovey was still being heavily pressed, and was calling on me for more reinforcements.

I ordered Crocker, who was now coming up, to send one brigade from his division.

McPherson ordered two batteries to be stationed where they nearly enfiladed the enemy's line, and they did good execution.
From Logan's position now a direct forward movement carried him over open fields, in rear of the enemy and in a line parallel with them.

He did make exactly this move, attacking, however, the enemy through the belt of woods covering the west slope of the hill for a short distance.
Up to this time I had kept my position near Hovey where we were the most heavily pressed; but about noon I moved with a part of my staff by our right around, until I came up with Logan himself.
