DESTROYS
HISTORIC HOUSE
Headquarters of Gen. Lee at
Bloody Angle Fight
Burned to Ground.

Fredericksburg, Va. July H.
The historic "McCoul" house in
Spotsylvania County. used as head
quarters by Gen. Robert e. Lee
during the battle of Bloody Angle.
was destroyed by fire yesterday.
History states that this colonial
mansion changed hands between the
Federal and Confederate troops
seven times in one day. 1t long has
been the most highly valued historic
landmark of the county.
, The house was built nearly 100
years before the civil war. 1t was
a frame building. made from lumber
hewed by hand from the surround
ing forests. The timbers were put
together with locust pins.
The old house was riddled with
bullets and shell holes. A tree.
nineteen inches in diameter. stand
ing near the house. was filled with
bullets during the battle of Bloody
Angle. Gen. Myers, of the Union
army, noticed the peculiar condition
OF the tree while passing through
the courtyard and offered the owner
of the house. the late Joseph San
ford. whatever he demanded for the
tree. Sanford refused to sell at any
price. Gen. Myers later sent a de-
tail of men back and took the tree.
After the war the government re-
funded MIR. Sanford's son $1,000 for
this vandalism. The tree now is on
exhibition at the Smithsonian In
stitution in Washington
