To the editor:

Please discount Bill Marvel’s recent editorial titled “Dreading April 9” and his negative view of the day of surrender of Confederate forces at Appomattox, Va., comparing it to town meeting and school board race. Instead, celebrate April 9 for America’s victory over white nationalism with the surrender of Confederate forces at Appomattox.
