This is came about because of a disscussion due to the upcoming Holiday that was approaching. The subject of the Gettysburg Address, was among the discussion and I was asked if I knew it. I recited the first 2 paragraphs by memory.
"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure.
I was surprised that I could recite even the first 2 paragraphs by memory.
We have been bless as a nation our freedom did not come cheap.
Thank you to those men and women who have given of themselves for this Great Nation. May God Thank You
