My wife and I had a pleasant time at the Orange County (California) Civil War Round Table last Tuesday night, January 17. I talked about the fight between around 600 men from Weisiger's Virginia Brigade and about 150 men from Colquitt's Georgia Brigade against approximately 1,120 men from White's division of IX Corps. The fight took place on August 19, 1864, off by itself on the eastern side of the Globe Tavern battlefield. A participant called it "The No Name Battle." David Zieve, a college classmate I had not seen in 45 years showed up for the meeting.
