The correct answer is true.
It is true that Lincoln structured his speech chronologically speaking about the past present and future.
During his "Gettysburg Address," President Abraham Lincoln makes a recount since the signing of the Declaration of Independence to actual events. Indeed, he began his speech by saying "Fourscore and seven years ago..." and then he refers to the founding father's creation of the new United States, a country of freedom, rights, and liberties. The speech was delivered on November 19, 1863, next to the battlegrounds of Gettysburg, one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War.
