Caption: Vacillation by the Federals
Additional Description: Looking west from the edge of the East Woods, near the marker location. The New Jersey Brigade, of Slocum's Division prepared to assault the West Woods as Sumner's attack stalled. The attack might have succeeded, but was called off. Federal commanders on the field were concerned the division was the last reserve on the right (north) sector of the battlefield. Later the Brigade shifted with the rest of the division to a position on the Smoketown Road, near the trees on the far left.
