As you know, our differences have caused a violent conflict, which is slowly creating an end for this great nation. It is in the interest of both our parties that we find a way to end this conflict, for the good of the nation and its people. Although differences may divide us, I believe that it is a very real possibility that we may find a way to split our differences. If you think that this eventuality is possible, as well as agreeable, would you agree to meet in Congress to discuss what will happen to our nation under god, with both parties agreeing to a temporary truce? If this seems agreeable to you, please respond as quickly as possible, so that we may stop this bloodshed.
With the utmost respect,
Abraham Lincoln, President
