Gettysburg Address

3. I think the speech shows that Lincoln was very loyal, honorable, and never forgot what came before him. I consider it loyal because he understand that the Civil War is turning our backs on our own country and countrymen, he considers us all to be one big family and we should be loyal to each other, north and south, because we are all one in a whole. It shows he is honorable because he is honoring what came before him, he starts the speech with talking about something that happened 87 years ago. This shows he honors his past and does not forget what came before him.
