a possible image of President Abraham Lincoln in his casket - David Lockmiller - 12-18-2021 12:39 PM Workers dismantling base of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee monument find what could be a time capsule Headline of Washington Post 12/18/2021 Reports said a 14-by-14-by-8-inch copper box was placed at the site — in what was then a tobacco field — three years before the equestrian figure of Lee was unveiled in 1890.
