As part of Cornell University's September 11 commemoration, the Library's Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections has created a new web site devoted to its handwritten copy of the Gettysburg Address. The site includes images of Lincoln's hand-written speech, as well as the transmittal letter and envelope. Also included is a contemporary news clipping about the battle and the dedication ceremony.
