| Interpretation | "[General Schofield's] movement was discovered by Johnston, who moved his army out of the defenses of the Etawah and Allatoona Pass toward New Hope Church, evidently determined to defeat Sherman in the forests of the Burnt Hickory Hills....The crossing of Pumpkin Vine creek was effected at three different points before Johnson [sic] could reach it to dispute its passage."
