ABRAHAM LIN CO LN.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great baltlefield 0/ that war. We have come (0 dedicate a portion 0/ it as a final resting place lor those who here gave their lives that that notion might live. It is altogether filling and proper that we should do this. .. But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate. we can not conSe crate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above ou r poor The world will little note nor long power to add or to detract. remember what we say here, hut it can never forget what they did here. It is lor us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so It is rather lor us to be here dedicated to the nobly advanced. great task remaining before us - that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last /ull measure 0/ devotion - that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth 0/ freedom, and that govern· ment of the people, by the people, and lor the people. shall not perish from the earth . .. ~ ,~ ·· Althou~h the loss to ou r teach· in~ force is a serious one, y(,l \\ ho ca n estimate the hOllor that comes to P Olllolla in g i\illg to th·e state of Califonlia such 11 Ulan; ~o \\~ bid him Godspeed and unmeasured s uc cess in hi~ !lew lit:ld of l:d'or as slate horticultu ral l'om missi,mc r.
