Fun Fact!

More than ten years after General Lee’s death, the Supreme Court ruled that the U.S. government had seized his wife’s estate without due process and ordered it returned to the family in the same condition as when it was confiscated. This ruling could have resulted in the exhumation of all of Arlington’s dead. Instead, Lee’s son sold the property to the United States for $150,000 in 1883.
