Address to the 166th Ohio Regiment on 24 August 1864, by President
Abraham Lincoln

I suppose you are going home to see your families and friends. For the
service you have done in this great struggle in which we are engaged I
present you sincere thanks for myself and the country. I almost always
feel inclined, when I happen to say anything to soldiers, to impress
upon them in a few brief remarks the importance of success in this
contest. It is not merely for today, but for all time to come that we
should perpetuate for our children's children this great and free
government, which we have enjoyed all our lives. I beg you to remember
this, not merely for my sake, but for yours. I happen temporarily to
occupy this big White House. I am a living witness that any one of your
children may look to come here as my father's child has. It is in order
that each of you may have through this free government which he have
enjoyed, an open field and a fair chance for your industry, enterprise,
and intelligence; that you may all have equal privileges in the race of
life, with all its desirable human aspirations. It is for this the
struggle should be maintained, that we may not lose our birthright - not
only for one, but for two or three years. The nation is worth fighting
for, to secure such an inestimable jewel.

Ha le plus bon vespere, omnes!
