“Four score and seven years ago,” he began, “our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” By making reference to the founding of the country 87 years before, Lincoln placed the battle within the larger arc of American history, thus connecting the work of Union soldiers at Gettysburg to the work of the Union’s founders at Philadelphia.
