Hundreds of pounds of honey have

Richmond, Va. Both the horse and
rider are hollow, and it appears that
ever since last summer bees have
been going in and out at the parted
lips and nostrils of Gen. Lee and his
steed. The bees are almost number
less, and they have been making
honey constantly. There is no way
OF getting inside the statue without
damaging it. and the bees win be left
