Thanks a lot Dave. Very much appreciated. The caps were intended for oscillations, but, just out of curiosity now, would it ever be valid to couple down to that bottom node? If the caps were just there for line noise or any other kind of signal that needed to be grounded out?

Yes, exactly. It's just a linear regulator. Is the way you connected the decoupling caps correct? Or rather, would connecting the negative terminals of those caps to the node at the very bottom of the diagram be incorrect?

I have a device in a DC circuit that calls for decoupling capacitors on VIN and VOUT. The circuit is powered by two batteries in series. The above device is hooked up in parallel to the second battery with the device ground connected to the node shared between the two batteries like so...
