White House, the, Va.
Before the battle at Williamsburg (May 5, 1862) General Franklin was ordered, with a force from Yorktown, to flank the Confederates, but it was detained so long that it failed to effect its purpose.
On the day of the battle it moved, and arrived at the head of the York River that night, and the next day some Nationals encountered Johnston's rear-guard in the woods.
After a conflict of three or four hours the Confederates were defeated.
In this affair the Nationals lost 194 men, mostly New-Yorkers; the loss of the Confederates was small.
Near the White House—the estate that belonged to Mrs. Washington, on the Pamunkey, one of the streams that form the York River—Franklin was enabled to establish a permanent and important base of supplies for McClellan's army.
The main army, meanwhile, moved up the Peninsula, and the general-in-chief and the advance of the main army arrived at the White House, about 18 miles from Richmond, on May 16.
The wife of Gen. Robe
