Site of Major's Hall
Bloomington, IL
A plaque commemorates the building where, on May 29, 1856, at a convention of the Republican Party of Illinois, Abraham Lincoln addressed a room of delegates and reporters with what was to become known as his "lost speech." Although there are no true records of the speech, it was this event that propelled Lincoln to the White House.
