Description The historical marker at the town square in State Line City, Indiana, commemorating a brief speech made by President Elect Abraham Lincoln. The plaque reads:

Abraham Lincoln made his only speech in Warren County, Indiana, near this spot Feb. 11, 1861.
"Gentlemen of Indiana: I am happy to meet you on this occasion, and enter again the state of my early life, and almost of my maturity. I am under many obligations to you for your kind reception and to Indiana for the aid she rendered our cause which I think a just one. Gentlemen, I shall address you at greater length at Indianapolis, but not much greater. Again gentlemen, I thank you for your warm-hearted reception."

Erected by the Tri-County Historical Society, 1930.
