Summary

Title inscribed on verso.
Inscribed on verso with title: between 3 & 4 miles from Malvern Hills and on the same side of the James River showing the Pontoon bridge & the double end gun boats protecting one of his flanks. Gen Foster has an entrenched position here which is likely to become the base of operations for movements of importance. When the object of this position is more fully developed I will send other sketches of it. W.W.
