REMEMBERANCE

VIRGINIA – APRIL 9, 1865

In a moment of clarity, both Generals Lee and Grant paused to consider all the death and carnage the war had wrought upon the land. Yielding to the better angels of their nature, the generals honored the memory of the ‘The Unnamed Soldier’ – depicted here in a giant tintype made by Jonathan A. Coffee, of Dundee, NY.
