The result of this battle convinced Lincoln that the time had come to end slavery in the South?
The narrow Union victory at Antietam Creek, Maryland gave Lincoln the opportunity to issue his Emancipation Proclamation. With the victory it would not appear to the public to be a desperate war measure to stave of defeat by making the war a moral crusade. Lincoln had already written the draft of the proclamation some months before and he did not need "convincing" that it was the right thing to do.
