HOW DID THE CIVIL WAR END?
The Civil War ended on April 9, 1865 at Appomattox, Virginia. General Grant (North) and General Lee (South) met at the Appomattox Court House and Lee signed surrender papers. Grant gave him supplies for his soldiers and they shook hands. The war was over. The slavery was gone. The United States of America was one country again. Less than a week after the surrender, Lincoln was murdered.
