The War in America: bringing in the Federal wounded after the skirmish at Lewinsville, Virginia - from a sketch by our special artist, 1861. Just as the wounded were being brought in General MClellan reached the ground with an Aide-de-Camp and an escort of dragoons. He raised his hat as each poor fellow was borne from the ambulance to the hospital; and many whose eyes were fast glazing in death raised themselves in the arms of those who bore them and smiled a last smile at their young and beloved General. Our artist writes: "I have just come from a cruise down the Potomac, and while away I fell in with the officer who was bringing the news of the Scracoke affair to the Navy department. The Sketch is done over his own lines on the paper...I expect to go out west...but we may have an attack here from hour to hour, and I dare scarcely leave. Both sides are now awfully close together, and very, very strong. I am waiting to get some definite notion of the next move on the cards and shall then act promptly". From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
