Perhaps the most interesting paper N this
number is particular account of Gen.
Lees surrender at AppomatoI Court
House, contributed by Edward A. Pollard.
He sustairs it by reference to good author
lilies, and from them gives some incidents
never before published. OF the Ap.
pomatox apple tree, fragments of
which are treasured as curiosiiies, MIR.
Pollard says, it was not the point of any
interview between Grant and Lee. The
latter was resting under an apple tree,
when, hearing OF Gen. Grants approach,
he went to a house at some distance,
where room was prepared for their meet
ing. The world is SO much accustomed to
think of generals as -four shing their
swords, that it may strike come people as
odd that though Gen Lee wore sword
On This occasion as a matter of ceremony,
the writer says sit was not his usual
habit: Gen. Grant, noticing Lees
sword, made courteous apology for not
wearing his own, which he said was on the
baggage train. Nothing more was said
about swords. The melo-dramatic incl
dent OF Lee offering to surrender and
Grant declining to receive the sword is
fancy; the surrender of Lees army was the
prac ical matter between then, and il was
s1ttled by co exchange of written commu-
nicstions, drafted, copied and in,erchauged
on the spot. Roberts Brothers, Boston,
are the publishers.
