surrender at Augusta, Georgia

My great grandfather, John Henry Wakefield was part of the 11th Texas Cavalry and his pension papers indicated that he surrendered with POWs at Augusta, Georgia in May of 1865. I think it was about 6 weeks after Appomatox. How could I find out details about the surrender to Union authorities in Augusta.
