520    Confederate General Joseph Johnston was essentially 
       brought out of retirement and reinstated to try to combat 
       the advancing army of General Sherman in North Carolina. 
       Johnston managed to win a small victory in the surprise 
       attack at Bentonville, but was forced to retreat to 
       Raleigh and then Greensboro. Upon hearing of General Lee's
       surrender at Appomattox in Virginia, Johnston negotiated 
       with Sherman for the surrender of his remaining forces and
       the forces in the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida—89,270 
       soldiers in total. Sherman issued rations to the defeated 
       Confederate soldiers and distributed flour, corn and other
       foodstuffs to civilians throughout the South. Johnston was
       so impressed with his generosity that he later wrote that 
       the act "reconciles me to what I have previously regarded 
       as the misfortune of my life, that of having you to 
       encounter in the field."
