But. a second memorial to
George Washington here Is
known to few and has been
seen by only a handful.
It is a tomb beneath the ro-
tunda of the Capitol built for
the express purpose of holding
the remains of General WASH
ington and his wife. The tomb.
along will a marble monument
which was never erected, was
authorized by Congress in 1899
to, commemorate the great
events of WaShington's military
and political life.
Empty now, as it has been
since it's completion in 1927,
the unoccupied crypt is used as
a place to keep the Nations Of

which the remains of selected
individuals lie for public view

If the illustrious couple is
ever brought to the Capitol. a
move highly improbable, the
marble monument authorized

over the tomb.
