Seems Herb Kaufman, long-time member of Old Baldy, happened upon an amazing historic document while helping prepare the Civil War Library & Museum for its move from 1801 Pine Street. He found what appears to be an authentic copy of the surrender document signed at Wilmer McLean's house at Appomattox on 10 April 1865. You can read his column about the discovery on page 16 of the September issue of Civil War News.
