DESTINATION

Bloomington

Majors Hall in Bloomington was the site of Abraham Lincoln's 1856 “Lost Speech” about the abolition of slavery, so named because reporters became so engrossed in the speech that none took notes. Although newspapers were unable to report the exact speech, most historians agree that this popular theme helped carry Lincoln to the presidency.
