the place for the conference he had hast
| ened on In undress uniform. This was
the, only, allusior. to sword that wa;
| made at the interview. After the terms o.
| surrender were settled General Grant ex

ers who. like their captors, were out of IA
tions. General Sheridan replied that he cOult
| supply 5000 rations. General Grant then in
structed him to send 5000 rations to Genera
| Lee commissary. After the interview Gen

| thanked that officer for kindness shown t,
his son, General Curtis Lee, who had beel
captured several days before. When Gener

Marshall is not sure that General Grant wa
among them, for his thoughts were busy wit
other matters at the time"
