Gettysburg Address


    Many people know the Gettysburg address. However, most people only know, "Four score and seven years ago". The rest of the speech is very important. It talks about how America was created so that people could be free and equal, but now everyone is fighting. Lincoln was worried that the once prosperous country would now not succeed because of the disagreement.
    Lincoln truly believed in this idea of living, and didn’t want the idea of freedom to die because everyone worked so hard to achieve it. Lincoln had a very tough job to try to sew the divided nation back together, and he definitely did a neat job… I don’t see any loose ends!
