Letter A is the correct one.


Lincoln signed, On September 22, 1862, the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which informed both the Confederacy and the Union of his intention to free all persons held as slaves in the rebellious states. The five-page document declared that slaves in the rebel states were free, provided them with the support of the U.S. government—including the Army and Navy, declared that freed slaves should be paid a wage, urged freed slaves to abstain from violence except in self-defense, and publically declared that all suitable freed men would be accepted into the armed services to fight in the war.

The <u>Proclamation of Emancipatio</u>n or Proclamation 95 was a presidential proclamation and an executive order issued by the president of the United States Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863. He amended the federal legal status of more than 3.5 million enslaved African-Americans in the designated areas of the south of slave, to free. As soon as a slave escaped the surveillance of the Confederate government, abandoning or through the advances of federal troops, the old slave was free.
