Gettysburg Address in 1863
• It is one of the best-known speech by U.S. President Abraham Lincoln during the American Civil War.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us ------—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
