Mosby didn't "leave the Confederacy and join the Union". Mosby served the Confederacy right up to the end of the war. It was only after the war that Mosby joined the Republican party. It is possible this had to do with Grant, as Grant had issued Mosby a safe conduct to stop Mosby from being harassed by Union occupation troops. Mosby's support for the Republican party got him a series of government jobs. While in California he befriended a small boy, the future George S. Patton.
