Caption: Arrival of the 84th New York
Additional Description: Looking northwest down Slocum Avenue toward the monument. The 84th New York (14th Militia) and the 6th Wisconsin of the Federal I Corps were dispatched to bolster Greene's defense of Culp's Hill. Arriving at about 8:30 p.m. the New Yorkers probably formed a line to the south (left) of the monument, astride the road and into the modern tree line. The Wisconsin troops were deployed on the other side of the monument.
