A court hearing scheduled for Thursday on a plan to build a Wal-Mart store near a Civil War battlefield in Virginia has been delayed, the Fredericksburg (Va.) Free Lance-Star reports.
The hearing was related to a lawsuit brought by a preservationist group and six local residents against the Orange County Board of Supervisors after the board approved a special-use permit to allow Wal-Mart to build a store near the Wilderness Battlefield, where Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee first met on the field of battle.
