It was later to become a garage in modern times.<br /><br />I had the privilege of living across the street from Traveler's home (and the President's house) when I was a freshman at Washington and Lee University in 1957. <br /><br />Traveler remains are buried on the grounds of Lee Chapel, opposite the Colonnade of the University.triodehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07962874434297506278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730876512871109275.post-45777193184865171562010-08-08T04:27:35.851-07:002010-08-08T04:27:35.851-07:00He was real gentlemen but a "distant" fi...He was real gentlemen but a "distant" figure.Scott B.
