The correct answer here is option D.

Explanation:

The American Civil War was the bloodiest conflict in the history of the United States.  Lincoln seeing the bloodshed wanted to bring the conflict as soon as possible to an end. After the War ended he wanted to end the hostile feelings both sides had towards one another and his plan for the Southern states to rejoin the Union was very lenient in contrast to the plans of the Radical Republicans. So he wanted the nation to heal as smoothly as possible but he also wanted to end slavery. But unfortunately he was killed before his plan was completed.
