Caption: O'Neal Attacks From Oak Hill
Additional Description: Looking north on Confederate Avenue toward the Peace Memorial. O'Neal formed his Brigade, minus two regiments, with the 12th Alabama on the west (left of this photo), 26th Alabama in the center, and 6th Alabama to the east (right of this photo) for the initial attack on the Federal lines. The arrayed force charged down the slope here, but encountered heavy resistance from Baxter's Federal Brigade. The repulse of O'Neal's Brigade opened up the flanks of Iverson's Brigade further west.
