20th Century, Original, 12" height by 10.25" width. Framed and matted under glass. Printing of the address issued by the Headquarters of the Army of Northern Virginia, General Order No. 9 at Appomattox Courthouse on April 10, 1865 with color portrait of Robert E. Lee and Confederate flags. Address: After four years of arduous service, marked by unsurpassed courage and fortitude, the ARMY OF NORTHERN VIRGINIA has been compelled to yield to overwhelming num-bers and resources. I need not tell the survivors of so many hard-fought battles, who have remained steadfast to the last, that I have consented to this result from no distrust of them; but feeling that valor and devotion could accomplish nothing that would compensate for the loss that must have attended a continuance of the contest, I determined to avoid the useless sacrifice of those whose past services have endeared them to their countrymen. By the terms of the Agreement, Officers and men can return to their homes and remain until exchanged. You will take with you the satisfaction that proceeds from the consciousness of duty faithfully performed, and I earnestly pray that a merciful God will extend to you His blessing and protection. With an unceasing admiration of your constancy and devotion to your Country and a grateful re-membrance of your kind and generous consideration of my-self. I bid you all an Affectionate Farewell. Overall appears complete and all original in very good condition.
