The American Revolution, was the event, which President Lincoln refers to, in his Gettysburg Address, which took place in November 1863. The term "score" refers to a unit of twenty years; four score, is 4 20s or 80 years, and 7, is 87 years. 87 years, prior to 1863 (the year the Gettysburg Address, was given.), was 1776, the year of the American Revolution.
