HELP MEEEE!!!What does Lincoln say he does not intend to do?

Check any of the boxes that apply.
I have no purpose directly or indirectly to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so. I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and the black races.
—Abraham Lincoln
