The answer is <span>“Whatever we do, we're very afraid the neighbors might hear or see us.” Because it is speaking about fear of being heard.</span>
I believe this is admiring, because the author isn't criticizing what Lincoln did to the nation, and he is also not laughing about it. The author isn't unhappy either, and I think he is admiring the job Lincoln did.

Dear Nephew,
It is me, your Uncle Scrooge. I think that the Christmas season is a humbug, and is a waste of time. I have an aspiration in making money, and the Christmas time just distracts me from my work, so I loose precious money! I shall not be obliged to helping the poor, as they can help themselves. I hope you can now see why I think of the Christmas season as odious nephew.
From,
Uncle Scrooge
