English: The Malvern House, General Porter's headquarters during the Battle of Malvern Hill. Original caption:
"THE MALVERN HOUSE. FROM A PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN IN 1885. During the engagement at Turkey bridge and the battle of Malvern Hill, this house was the headquarters of General Porter, and was a signal-station in communication with the gun-boats in the James River, toward which it fronts. It was built of imported English brick, of a dark but vivid red. The main battle-field is in the direction of the trees on the right, and Tyler's siege-guns were near the small trees in the left distance.— Editors" |
