George saw that the glories of Williamsburg, of WestPoint, of Hanover Court House, and of Fair Oaks would have to bethrown away because the wisdom of the nation would not send us aid. This, my son, was the day of our tribulation. The people werestrong, and the army represented the people. I wish, my son, that Icould say also that the Government was strong. But the army, if itwas sick, had not lost its courage, nor its love for the general whocommanded it. General Lee then came out with his stro...ng and powerful army andfought us at Gaines's Mill, where he beat us after a desperatebattle. We might as well confess that we were beaten, and badlybeaten, in that battle; and that we had to make the best we could ofour defeat, and get across the Chickahominy Swamp as quick as wecould, and turn our backs on it forever, for we had filled it withthe graves of our brave soldiers. George was sanguine, had greatconfidence in the endurance of his army, and looked forward to thefuture with faith and hope.
