Answer:
Lines are not given in the question, i guess you are talking about the following lines.
"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor."
These lines from the declaration of independence are an example of the use of <u>Pathos</u>.
Pathos is a way of expressing emotions, sorrows in the films or literature or awakening of emotions in the audience. So the above mentioned lines lie in this category.
Many freedmen did not have anywhere to go because many people at the time did not allow blacks to work for them. So blacks worked for farmers for small wages. This created so-called new slavery because the blacks would be paid so little for their work (almost a few cents for 1 year of work)
General Lee surrendered a. in the village of Appomattox Court House.
it is not Bull Run, because that was the first "ligit" battle fought between opposing sides
it is not Gettysburg, because that was the turning point of the war
It is not Vicksburg, because that was a siege inplaced by the Union to finish the Anaconda Plan, which split the Confederacy into two
hope this helps
