That whole "surrender" business is just Yankee propaganda-
completely made-up.


Not completely - bofum *were* at Appomatox,,,,

Grant had been drinking again,
so General Lee got him to agree to a "tie."
It was covered up to protect Grant's presidential run
so his cronies could get power.


That's not how I heard it!

It was explained to me that Grant stole Lee's sword, and Lee was too much of a
gentleman to ask for it back.


Oh****, here we go again . . BPL in Manassas is now ANOTHER
regurgitation of the Civil War . . figgers . . !
