    Briar Anderson writes to Mrs. Brooke Anderson to explain the true meaning and emotions behind Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. Lincoln cared deeply about those who fought and died in the Civil War to preserve the Union. In the speech, Lincoln acknowledges that the nation was engaged in a bloody Civil War to determine whether any government dedicated to freedom can endure. He honors the soldiers who fought at Gettysburg by consecrating the battlefield as their final resting place. Briar argues that contrary to some beliefs, Lincoln's speech was not rude but rather expressed his sorrow for the losses of war and his hopes for the nation.

    Dear Mrs.Anderson:

    My name is Briar Anderson and I would like to tell you about the Ghetty’sBurg Address written
    by Ambraham Lincoln. I am here to explain to you what his words through out the speech he
    gave really meant and how he really felt about the Civil War. Also how he put his words into play
    with his emotions. I strongly think that Abraham Lincoln’s speech was very impressive and that
    he did a great job showing his thought and respect for the ones who fought and died for our
    country.

    I understand that not everyone will think the same way I do but I am just trying to explain the
    correct thoughts and reasoning to Abranham’s speech. He states that “We are met on a great
    battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place
    for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live”. This proves that Lincoln really did
    care about those who fought for us who fought for our country’s freedom. He cared about them
    no matter who they were because they cared for our country.It was proven that all those men
    did die on that battle field it is known as one of the most bloody wars in history. He also states
    that “ Now we are engaged in a great Civil War, testing whether that nation, or any nation
    conceived and dedicated, can long endure”. Abraham tells the people that we are in a war that
    will take a long time and that we will endure a lot of bad things along the way. It was his right to
    tell them about what had been going on. Don’t you think you would want to know if we were in a
    civil war and that our country had lots of deaths. I mean I would want to know all of the
    information there is to know about what is going on in the world wouldn’t you? Lincoln stated
    “The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor
    power to add or detract”. More proof that shows that it was one of the bloodiest wars and that
    there were many brave men who went to fight for all of us.

    So as you can see the Ghetty’sBurg address wasn’t full of rude words and expressions spoken
    by Abraham Lincoln. He was just truly showing his emotions and his thoughts on our country.
    He felt terrible for the ones who died fighting for us and he knew they deserved to rest in peace.
    So I think we all should get together and let the rest of our family know the real truth and other
    people all around us that he wasn’t just some terrible speech. This speech had lots of meaning
    to it.

    Sincerely,

    Briar Anderson
