Answer 1

Answer:

In his famous "House Divided" speech of 1858, Lincoln predicts that if the issue of slavery isn't rectified then the United States will not be able to endure in its present condition. Instead of being "half slave, half free" it will have to become completely one thing or the other, wholly slave or wholly free.
