[Magdalen] Tragedy in Charlottesville

[James Handsfield]

I’ve heard it told that he was in Richmond, VA; another story has it at Grace Church, Lexington, VA during Lee’s tenure as president of (then) Washington College, where he was the senior warden at said church.  That church is on the south west corner of (now) Washington and Lee University where Lee is buried in the campus chapel.
