Printed as an extra, this edition put Lincoln's first inaugural address before readers soon after he delivered it on March 4, 1861, from the East Portico of the U.S. Capitol. He spoke after seven Southern states had already seceded, and he rejected secession outright, calling the Union perpetual and promising not to interfere with slavery where it existed. His closing appeal to "the better angels of our nature" became one of the most quoted passages of his presidency. Extra editions like this one were often how Americans first read such speeches.
