PLEASE HELP ME...



In his 1861 inaugural address, Abraham Lincoln said:

"I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so."

Based on this comment, why would the South believe Lincoln was out to end slavery? Research other quotations from Lincoln and post your findings that either supports the inauguration quotation or oppose it.
