579 during a transitional period: Sherman understood the President to say "that to avoid anarchy the State governments then in existence, with their civil functionaries, would be recognized by him as the government de facto till Congress would provide others." William T. Sherman, Memoirs (New York: D. Appleton & Co., 1875), 2:327. On the basis of this understanding he made recognition of Governor Zebulon Vance's Confederate government of North Carolina part of the surrender terms that he offered Joseph E. Johnston on April 18. By this time Lincoln was dead, and Stanton and others in the government at Washington repudiated Sherman's agreement. Raoul S. Naroll, "Lincoln and the Sherman Peace Fiasco-Another Fable?" Journal of Southern History 20 (Nov. 1954): 459483, convincingly argues that Sherman exceeded his instructions, yet it seems evident that Lincoln must have discussed, even if he did not endorse, recognition of Confederate state authorities at this City Point meeting.
