Lincoln had only one reason to fight: to save the Union. In time, however, there was another reason to fight: to free the black people held as slaves in the South.

Today, Kay Gallant and Harry Monroe continue the story of how President Lincoln dealt with this issue.

VOICE ONE:

Lincoln had tried to keep the issue of slavery out of the war. He feared it would weaken the northern war effort. Many men throughout the North would fight to save the Union. They would not fight to free the slaves.

Lincoln also needed the support of the four slave states that had not left the Union: Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland and Missouri. He could not be sure of their support if he declared that the purpose of the war was to free the slaves.

The influence of Greek architecture can be seen in more modern buildings in that some elements of Greek architecture, such as columns, are still used today.

Ancient Greek architecture still marveling modern architects for its structure, design, and beauty.  The way Greeks used white marble to built impressive buildings and temples is fantastic.

Greek architecture directly influences Roman architecture, as we can see in one of the most famous Roman building that is perfectly preserved in downtown Rome, Italy: The Pantheon.

In the United States, the influence of Greek architecture with the use of large white marble columns can be seen in Washington D.C. Tese are the examples: the Supreme Court Building, Lincoln Memorial, and US Capitol.
