Answer:

<u>B. He allowed Lee's men to keep their horses and side arms. </u>

Explanation:

On April 9, 1865, the leader of the Confederacy, Robert E. Lee, and the leader of the Union, Ulysses S. Grant, met in The Appomattox Court House to sign the documents that put an end to the civil war and established the surrender of the Confederacy to the Union. A document whose surrender terms were widely considered generous to the defeated Confederacy because all Confederate men were pardoned and all Confederate military equipment was relinquished except their horses and side arms.
