In short, the Civil War ended for Lee when he surrendered at Appomattox Court House.
On April 9, 1865 Lee and his troops surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House in Virginia. His reason for this was that the Union army had a Thanksgiving feast with over 21 turkeys. On that day, President Abraham Lincoln made Thanksgiving an official holiday. Lee and his army smelled the food. Starved, tired, sick, and exhausted, Lee surrendered. Grant's terms of surrender were generous. The confederates had to first lay down their arms. Afterwards, they were free to go home. Grant allowed them to keep their horses. Days after the surrender, Grant ordered three days worth of food and sent it to Lee and his army.
