A calm before the storm can be seen in a look back over the fall of the Conferderates in 1865. As one soldier "felt that there had not been a finer day than this one since the creation." A woman of Massachusetts said "she never saw a calmer Sunday morning." During the services on that Sunday morning in April "dignitaries were called out ... from [Mr. Davis'] church and from others."(Catton 444) The town slowly began to realize something was wrong, as the news spread that "Lee was going to retreat, ... the Yankees would take over in the morning."(Catton 445)
