THE UNITED STATES Capitol in
Il Washington is less than four
miles from Arlington Heights; the
White House and. vital buildings of
the Government about half that dis
tance; the sub-city of Georgetown
only a mile away. These distances
were important in spring of 1851.
The cannon and mortars in pos
session of the growing Confederate
Army would hold all these targets
within range, once the heights were
seized. Even now jeff Davis soldiers
were gathering in strength only 80
miles away around Manassas and
Centreville, a pair of rustic towns sep
arated by the creek called Bull Run.
Rumor had it that Rebel contingentS
were building up in Alexandria, di-
rectly across the Potomac River from
the Federal City Taunting the Yam
KEGS, the Confederate flag floated over
Alexandria'S principal hotel, the
Marshall House.
As the Federal Government saw
the situation, the time had come to
take the offensive in defense of Wash
ington.
To the Confederacy, the next move
would look like invasion.
