Lincoln began his address in a subdued tone . Until the final draft, Lincoln's address had ended with a question for the South: "Shall it be peace or sword?" In the famous concluding paragraph, Lincoln, following the suggestion of Seward, moderated his tone dramatically and ended on a memorable note of conciliation:
that this nation, under God,
strict
noone nows sorry
lol
Speeches can have many different tones, from passionate to calm.
that this nation, under God,
Consecrate, hallow this is for those of you who have APEX
strict
The tone of the Gettysburg Address was (and is), in a word, warmly austere. President Lincoln combined simple and complex sentences, utilized familiar yet inspiring terms, and applied ageless truths to the most pressing problem of his time -- with a calm and dignified, yet also personal and inspirational tone. In a word, he achieved a warm austerity in the tone of this speech.
The mood of this speech is sad because it is the dedication of the Soldiers' at National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, after the Union armies defeated those of the Confederacy at the Battle of Gettysburg. so in other words this speech is referring to the people that died in the battle.
formal!
As judged by its word-choice, imagery, and pacing, among other literary qualities, the tone of the Gettysburg Address is fundamentally restrained and yet hortatory. That is, it lays out in a precise, respectful, and disciplined manner the fundamental issues at work in the Gettysburg battle and in the Civil War as a whole. At the same time, it asks for further devotion, commitment, unfaltering work to be performed for the sake of achieving the lofty goals for which the Civil War was being fought by the Union.

Maintain an objective tone
If you are going for a formal tone you could address the note to my fellow employees; for a less formal tone you could address it Dear Folks. Dear guys if they are all male.
By ending the Civil War and freeing the slaves, he ended the dispute over slavery forever.
