Answer:

D. The Confederate soldiers were given food and were allowed to keep their horses

Step-by-step 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 American Civil War and established the surrender of the Confederacy to the Union.

On this meeting, the Union leader pardoned all Confederate officers and men, allowed the defeated officials go home with their horses and, after Lee's request, he agreed to send 25, 000 rations to the hungry Confederates.
