TRUTH !!
Ann Carter Lee developed a severe fever in 1804 that had her completely
bedridden for months. After a heartbeat was undetectable, she was pronounced
dead by a physician. Mr. Lee placed his beloved mate in the family vault
three days later. Soon afterwards, visiting the site of his deceased wife,
he was sure he could hear a weak voice calling for help. When he removed the
coffin lid, he found Ann, faint and pale, but definitely alive. Eventually,
her health had completely restored. On January 19, 1807, fifteen months
later, the infant, Robert E. Lee was born. He became the famous General of
the Confederate States of America, in the Civil War (1862-1865).
