General Robert E. Lee's office. " Probably no spot in the South is possessed of such a wealth of impressive traditions as is this now disued little room underneath the Memorial Chapel. It was here that the Hero of the South presided as head of Washington and Lee University, and today one can see his pens, his books and his letters just as he left them when he left the little office forever."
