Lincoln and Douglas at Quincy in heated political clash

A sprawling, highly charged speech by Abraham Lincoln at the Quincy gathering pits him against Stephen A. Douglas over slavery, the Dred Scott decision, and constitutional rights. Lincoln attacks Douglas’s “popular sovereignty” while defending equal rights, denouncing gains by slaveholders and pledging to sustain anti-slavery principles amid partisan tumult.
