the Cemeteries-state Taxes.
tcorrosnondence OF the Richmond Dlspatch.l
ALEXANDRIA, Va, September 20. 1890.
Among the recent rumor incidents here
hoe been the discovery that one of the
bodies in a vault at Ivy-Hlll cemetery had
not decayed when the coffin and box de-
caved. but was found hard and dry like
stone This has been accounted for by the
fact that the embalmer's art bad been en-
ploved with more than its usual effect.
Tho vaults which existed on most OF the
family estates in this neighborhood were
as a rule broken open during the late war
bv the Federal soldiers IN search OF plate
and other treasure which, IL was thought,
the families that bad been forced South oy
fine pressure of the war had concealed
there.
DFsPoILKD AND RUINED.
No treasure was found, but the vnults
were left open and became the prey or
the elements and the resort OF animals, so
that many of them fell into ruin, skulls
and homes were carried Of, and when the
families returned at the close Of the war
the ruined habitations OF the dead were
levelled and covered with earth, and have
never since been used. so that very few. II
any, old family vaults now exist IN either
Fairfax or Alexandria counties, where
once they could be numbered 10y scores.
The silver plates wrenched from collins
have in some instances been sent back
from the North, where they fell into TREND
ly hands.
