The Civil War Ends Confederate Soldiers in Alabama It was just down three miles from where the Hightower plantation was, each man who could bear arms was nonetheless firm and prepared to carry on a new battle, but Common Robert E. Lee and Basic Grant were talking about a surrender; the Confederates were in such bad shape, that in due time Common Grant would order rations for twenty-five thousand Confederates. Most of the Confederate Army was enfeebled by hunger, wasted by sickness, foot diseases, from the constant marching, it was far more than a hardship it was stifling ((wholly unfit for duty) (formal surrender would arrive on April 9, 1865, and although the last shot would be fired, it would not arrive until sometime in May well or June)). It now was the very first week of April, 1865. I should suggest you check out additional research on Patterson Funeral Home.
