The Lincoln Society of Dayton
This organization was founded to
- Commemorate
Lincoln's visit to Dayton in 1859
- Educate
our community about this pivotal time in our history and Lincoln's vital
role in saving our nation and his ongoing impact on our lives
- Inspire
all ages to follow his example of compassion, patriotism, equality and
justice for all
- Build
upon the recent restoration of the Old Court House and downtown renewal
efforts.
The
political speeches Lincoln
made in the fall of 1859 reviewed the arguments he had made during the
previous year, in the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858. The picture of him
talking in Dayton, Ohio, in front of the courthouse, is a
typical scene of his speech-making tour.
