Lee's army is 'annihilated'...



Item # 690718

April 07, 1865

CONCORD DAILY MONITOR, New Hampshire, April 7, 1865  Inside includes: "Sheridan Playing His 'Trumps' "LEE'S ARMY ANNIHILATED" "Large Captures of Officers and Men: "LEE AND HIS WHOLE ARMY SURRENDERED" "Sheridan's Victory!" "Six General and Thousands of Prisoners Taken!" "Lee Seeking the 'Last Ditch' " and more.
As for the Lee's surrender report, this is a bit premature. He would ask Grant for terms of surrender but the formal surrender would occur on April 9.
Four pages, small folio size, very nice condition.
