The reason for the battle Early on April 9, the remnants of John Broun Gordon’s corps and Fitzhugh Lee’s cavalry formed line of battle at Appomattox Court House. Gen. Robert E. Lee determined to make one last attempt to escape the closing Unions grasp and reach his supplies at Lynchburg. At dawn the Confederates advanced, initially gaining ground against Sheridan’s cavalry. The arrival of Union infantry however, stopped the advance in its tracks. Lee’s army was now surrounded on three sides. Lee surrendered to Grant on April 9. This was the final engagement of the war in Virginia. http://christopherfountain.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/saluteofhonor.jpg

I think that it was in the best interest for everyone that the union won because slavery would still be here if the union would have lost and things would have only gotten worse for slaves.
