HEADQUARTERS ARMIES OF
THE UNITED STATES,
April 9, 1865.
General R. E. LEE,
Commanding C. S. Army:
Your note of this date is but this moment (11.50 a.m.)
received. In consequence of my having passed from the Richmond and Lynchburg road
to the Farmville and Lynchburg road I am at this writing about four miles west
of Walker's Church, and will push forward to the front for the purpose of
meeting you. Notice sent to me on this road where you wish the interview to
take place will meet me.
Very respectfully,
your obedient servant,
U. S. GRANT,
Lieutenant-General.
