Abstract

Daniel Webster, if given the opportunity, would respond to Lincoln's Gettysburg address with an oration of his own. If he were among us today, Webster would deliver an oration to commemorate the historical occasion of Gettysburg, and of Lincoln's eloquent performance. In typical Webster fashion, his oration on that occasion could not be confined to 272 words, but would be a grand patriotic composition, on the model of his orations at Plymouth and Bunker Hill.
