LAD/Blog #20: Lincoln's 2nd Inaugural Address

In this Inaugural address, Abraham Lincoln starts off by saying how since America is in the midst of civil war and he has been sharing speech after speech, there really is not a whole lot more he has to say which has not been said. He is hopeful for the future of America, but does not firmly say what he thinks will be of the end of the civil war. He does not know when the war will finally be over, but mentions that it will not be done until justice is done. He recognizes that the nation is so split but is hopeful for peace and an end to the war soon.
