the little, gaunt, hard-faced Northern
General his mud-spattered trousers
tucked in his boots, his loose blue
blouse of a soldier open and showing

with stin brim. He wore neither
spurs nor sword. Only his shoulder
straps showed his rank, the highest
held in the army since Washington,
In the memorable interview, Grant
tried to soften the edge of defeat for
Lee by talking of their former service
together in the Mexican War
That he succeeded is told in these
lines in his memories: Our conver-
sation grew so pleasant that / almost
forgot the object of our meeting.'
Lee gently brought him back tc
the business that lay so close to both
their hearts. They talked of terms.

GRANT HATED WAR.

Grant hated war. He engaged in
it as business that must be done.
His IL propose TO fight it out on this
line II 1t takes all summer" express
ed exactly his sense OF duty as a
general. He considered the enemy
only in the light of an obstacle be-
tween him and his objective point.
lie was without vindictiveness He
harbored resentment against nobody
not even the jealous generals who
made his progress to supreme COM
mand n road Of thorns. He never
pushed himself forward In all his
years as a soldier he had never asked
tor promotion, or referred. except in
the briefest official dispatches, to
what he had done.
When unjustly censured in the
Tennessee campaign he had demand
ed his own removal, and an investi-
cation. Lincolns far-seeing percep-
tion OF his rare merits and his inter
cession had set Grant right. For
that he was ever grateful, and when
the command of the armies of the
United States came to him he invok-
ed the aid OF divine Providence to
help him perform the solemn duty OF
ending the war. That he could end
it he never doubted; but he went at
the task as modestly as he had rid
den in battle in the Mexican War,
lived his lonely life in the Western
posts, carried on farming after leav-
ing the army, or broke" a mutinous
regiment when he came back to the
army as a volunteer.
