he seems to have surveyed the many.
disappointments, the measureless sa-

He felt the assurance of the nation

utterance from his great heart was
'Let us have peace.“ P
"Undoubtedly the task of recon-
struction was lightened because of
Grafit's moderation. x x x I cannot

in the concluding sentences of the note
in which ‘he proposed to receive the

will be allowed to return to their
homes. not to be disturbed by United
States authority so long as they ob-
serve their parolcs and the laws in
force where they may teside.‘

ment with General Lee that every

these conditions would have a happy
effect upon his army. x x x x x x x

spoke the great. true heart of the man
who could see into the feature and
realize its problems.
