Union and Confederate officers gaze across truce at Fort Crater
From Gen Grant lines the scene shows a flag of truce waved near the crater. Vice President Alexander H. Stephens and ex-Senator R. M. T. Menta from Virginia seek permission to enter Union lines via James River but are blocked by river conditions. Soldiers, once ready for action, observe a tense quiet as discussions unfold on neutral ground.
