not reached Richmond when this was forwarded. U. S. Grant, Lieutenant-General. Brief. Richmond, Virginia, June 13, 1865. Lee, General R. E., States, that being about to be indicted with others, for crime of treason, by grand jury at Norfolk, Virginia, says that he is ready to meet any charges that may be preferred against him. Had supposed his surrender protected him. Desires to comply with provisions of the President's proclamation. Encloses application, etc. Endorsement on theinfraction of terms by the government as an entire release from all obligations on their part. I will state further, that the terms granted by me met with the hearty approval of the President at the time, and of the country generally. The action of Judge Underwood, in Norfolk, has already had an injurious effect, and I would ask that he be ordered to quash all indictments found against paroled prisoners of war, and to desist from further prosecution of them. U. S. Grant, Lieutenant-General.
