A See You Next Tuesday at Appomattox

What I recall "at" Appomattox (a river: see US's 1st submarine later "Alligator" considered for use on it in Wikipedia) was that the terms were literally written up by a New York Seneca native American for Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee and that the Union Secretary of War was uninformed and left out. A former Secretary of War, Jefferson Davis, was once the president of the confederacy. Robert E. Lee, once Commandant of West Point Military Academy, in NY, was asked by Lincoln to lead the Union but declined, had been at the trial and hanging of John Brown at the Federal Arsenal at Harpers Ferry. He also lived in Fort Hamilton military facility a house there with his name today and a street, where Enron cost them $20 million in bad orders. His US citizenship has since been restored (Golden Triangle Airport, Freedom Exhibit, Mississippi). Ulysses S. Grant served first at Sacketts Harbor on Lake Ontario and also on Governors Island in NYC harbor, where also southern prisoners were kept and interrogated, General Lee's son said to have been kept in the fort demolished (Fort Lafayette) for the building of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, (Florentine navigator who explored the eastern coast of North America (circa 1485-1528) connecting Brooklyn and Staten Island. So if I were to restart an American civil war I'd start it in NYC where it seems it did once before, this time over the $1 for Governors Island President Clinton offered.
