Lincoln was given his supreme Wis
ion. He did not hate the man from
whom he differed. Weakness was
as foreign as wickedness to his
strong, gentle nature; but his cour-
age was of quality so high that it
needed no bolstering of dark passion.
He saw clearly that the same high
qualities, the same courage, and
willingness for self-sacrifice, and
devotion to the right as it was Civ
en- them to see the right, belonged
both to the men of the North and to
the men of the South AS the years
roll by, and as all of us, wherever
We dwell, grow to feel an equal pride
in the valor of self-devotion,, alike
of the men who wore the blue and
the men who wore the gray, so this
whole nation will grow to feel a
peculiar sense of pride in the
mighty men who mastered the
mighty days; the lover of his coun-
try and of all mankind; the man
whose blood was shed for the
union of his people and for the free
dom of race, Abraham Lincoln.
