He said it on November 19, 1863. He was the second speaker and was told to have a short speech because people were coming to hear someone else not him. His speech was 2 minutes long and less than 300 words. The other speakers was 2 hours long. But Lincoln was amazing because that very short speech that people expected more from turned out to be a very great speech.
