Union Retakes Sagarville: July 23rd

Two Federal infantry regiments and a section of artillery advanced on Sagarville from Mount Zion Church on July 23rd, and found it occupied by a single regiment of Confederate infantry. The artillery deployed northeast of town and began shelling the enemy as the infantry moved in. The Confederates defended the center of town, but were eventually forced to withdraw southward to Old Fort.
