In 16- an act of congress levied a dir rt war tax on the states in insurrection, the proportion of Arlington being $!2.o? and no one appearing to pay it, the entire 1 10i acres were ild lit auction and the government being the only bidder. The I.ee family have aiay claimed that this was virtuallc n confiscation.

In 1X65 it was lcidH t i stahlish a National eemeteiy and th irounds surrounding the man -ion were aseitmed to that purpose. .Since that time mopt of those from the army hospitals have been interred here. After the war some thousands of dead from the neighboring battlefields of Virginia were removed to that place, originally, but a small portion was set aside for burial purposes, but it has been increased from time to time, as necessity requir"d. until now AH acres are enclosed by a stone wall and on July 1. 20.100 inteiments had been made. The older pari, near the mansion, is rolling and levels itself to terracing, and is the most beautiful and picturesque as it is th 'argest of the R.'l cemeteries maintained by the government.
