some come to arlington to me was fast now she runs an environmentally friendly funeral home this call of mourning dove. and it's around here somewhere. there now hundreds of alternatives to metal and hardwood coffins. and roose facsecome a big supplier in new england. but the one this is. a casket made out of an enemy. and i love the fact that this would be a waste this is just be wasted. using all natural matials ans tt they break down and soil in no time it'll. there's a saying we dies we live but it hasn't always been true with their funeral practices because we haven't known. and we have another option. secondly it's not really it's not a very -- elaborate show room. but recycled paper. definitely is. definitely why would this is great. it was the other way it's kind of a flat. this is a shroud so it could be in it. adrian cemetery man could just be laid on the ground in this. desert see somebody in that there's there is. yep and so that. this woulde. at a shallower level than the six feet under where. it looks. amazing isn't it lovely yeah. the card. for one i want this yeah it i

the secretary of war, literally a one liner is from is from arlington and then sign. you're obedient now your obedient servant really, colonel, first you ask, have. so i'd mentioned that the confided records, the national archives were captured and so they created an office within the war department. so there's within the records division, they called it the rebel archives. so there's a telegram. from the officers, the officer, the grant put in charge of richmond. so this is about the 2nd of april, 1865, and there's a telegram from him to d.c. that said that he's trying to collect as much of the rebel archives as possible. so they're calling it the rebel archives from day one. so that's something that the u.s. army came up with and then they stamp a lot of that documentation. some of it was almost like a chain of custody. so in a court case where you have a chain of custody that is going be used in a court case, this was during the time period where jefferson davis was, you know kind of under house arrest in fort monroe. and they were still trying to decide if he's go
