when was lincoln's preliminary warning related to the emancipation proclamation made?
september 22, 1862
on september 22, 1862, lincoln issued a preliminary warning that he would order the emancipation of all slaves in any state that did not end its rebellion against the union by january 1, 1863. none of the confederate states restored themselves to the union, and lincoln's order was signed and took effect on january 1, 1863. the emancipation proclamation outraged white southerners (and their sympathizers) who envisioned a race war. it angered some northern democrats, energized anti-slavery forces, and undermined elements in europe that wanted to intervene to help the confederacy. the proclamation lifted the spirits of african americans both free and slave. it led many slaves to escape from their masters and get to union lines to obtain their freedom, and to join the union army.
