I was moved by the author's account of Lee's Surrender."After he signed,Lee shook hands with Grant and bowed to others.He then strode silently out of the door.He looked sadly at his little Army.He then put on his gloves then,twice with savage ruefulness,Lee drove his fist into his palm.He then cried for Traveler in a hoarse and choking voice and rode out of sight"!-Herb
