Unconditional Surrender
General Ulysses S. Grant's terms of surrender for the Confederate Army at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865, were marked by generosity and leniency. Confederate General Robert E. Lee was allowed to surrender his troops on the condition that they would lay down their arms and return home peacefully. Grant also permitted the soldiers to keep their personal sidearms and horses, ensuring their dignity and welfare. The terms were designed to promote reconciliation and healing after the Civil War.
