It's too bad things weren't so "gracious" during Reconstruction.Today, April 9, 1865, the Rebellion finally collapsed, and the victorious General Grant graciously accepted the surrender of Rebel forces at Appomattox Court House.
Great band. Been around a long time.The damn Secesh had their own version. But that was a common phenomenon in that War: versions and parodies of the same song.
