GEN. LEE s SWORD
LITTLE DAMAGED
Blade Intact, Found in 'Labur-
num- Ashes After Diligent
Search.
WILL BE FULLY RESTORED
Mr. Bryan Will Send 1t to the
Armory to Be Polished and
Refitted.

The sword of General Robert Edward
Lee. which was thought to have been de-
stroyed in the fire at "L.aburnum,'' was
on yesterday recovered The hilt and
scabbard had melted or burned, but the
blade was practically uninjured, being
but slightly discolored and warped by
the heat.
The sword in question was used by
General Lee when he served first as cap
tain and later as colonel in the United
States army in the Mexican War. 1t Is
the sword of an officer of engineers.
1t was one of the treasures of "Labur-
num- and Mr.. Joseph Bryan made every
effort to recover it. having the ashes
sifted in making the search.
Workmen on yesterday morning found
the blade in the ruined cellar, beneath
what was once the library, where the
treasure was kept.
MIR. Joseph Bryan will send the blade
to an armory, where it will be finely
polished. and a new hilt and scabbard
will be fitted.
The reproduction will be made as COM
plete as possible. The sword of captain
of engineers OF the period of the Mcx-
can War will probably be used somewhat
as model for furnishing the hilt and
scabbard.
