Remarks:
The monument commemorates Lincoln's speech delivered on the afternoon of Saturday, Sept. 17, 1859. The monument was a gift to the citizens of the Dayton area through the Montgomery County Commissioners. Six maquettes were made. The cast bronze maquettes are 18 inches high and are mounted on granite bases. One belongs to the Lincoln Society of Dayton, two were given to top donors, and for the remaining three, a committee was formed to determine the distribution of the maquettes for public viewing in the Dayton area.
