What led me to search for this question of an armistice is a letter I have dated May 10, 1865 from Texas that mentions talks of an armistice. Quote "There is reported an armistice of sixty days, I suppose you have hear it." At that time, her husband was away with the Confederate troops, evidently with the last of the soldiers.

I have not found any info on an actual armistice. Everyone looks for an armistice when Lee & Grant met in April but perhaps we should look at May when the last of the troops were in Mississippi.
