Answer:
Abraham Lincoln was delivering a speech in the small Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg in November of 1863 because he was at the dedication of a national cemetery where those who had died in the Battle of Gettysburg were interred. So, the correct answer is Option C.
Explanation:
President Abraham Lincoln honouring a request by David Wills, a prominent citizen of Gettysburg who was in-charge of cleaning up after the grisly battle, delivered a short speech at the closing ceremonies dedicating the battlefield cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. He offered a few remarks at the end of the ceremony.
Through his words, Lincoln immortalized the Union who were dead and highlighted the extenuating power of their sacrifice. He placed the common soldier at the centre of the struggle for equality and reminded the others of higher purpose for which the blood was shed.
