General Grant, surrounded by generals and staff officers, soon followed. The two supreme leaders of the epic Civil War were about to bring four years of bloody fighting to an end. Dozens of officers, horses, and onlookers waited outside the mood was somber and filled with anticipation. After 90 minutes, Lee and Grant emerged.
