After Reading Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, here's the summary I came up with:
Lincoln starts by saying that he does not wish to interfere with slavery. He then goes on to talk about how he is willing to do anything to protect the union, implying that if he needs to he will go to war with the South, should they try to succeed. Next he says that he will enforce the fugitive slave act and protect the currently slave-states, so they can remain so. He finishes by saying that he hopes the North and the South can find a way to work together.
