BATTLE OF FRANKLIN

The Battle of Franklin, Tennessee was an important battle of the American Civil War, fought on November the 30th, 1864. General Hood, Confederate, attempted to draw William Sherman back from his march through Georgia by moving northward into Tennessee and attacking Thomas. At Franklin Hood brought to a stand a portion of Thomas' army under Schofield, and, after several desperate attacks, compelled him to withdraw. But the Confederate loss was 5500, while that of Schofield was 2300. Soon followed Thomas' great victory over Hood at Nashville.
