West Bergen to host 20th Annual ‘Fall Night’ Lincoln-McClellan debate (continued from page 11) elected he would not stop the war until the Union was restored -- with or without the destruction of slavery. He said Lincoln was a good man misled by radicals. Lincoln said emancipation and victory would have to go together, and that McClellan was a good general, but not as good as he thought himself to be. Between rounds, Costello acted as a sort of mentor to the less experienced Hall, and the two of them sat side by side with Hall’s wife Vickie at the lead table. Hall, who works in arts and design, said he had read six or seven books about McClellan, plus everything on the Web, and his ability to recall battles and other biographical facts earned him the respect of a well informed audience. Costello was unshakable in popular appeal, and the plausible chance to question one or both men kept the debate going an hour longer than anticipated. This event was organized by Ridgewood Historical Society President Sheila Brogan, Jean Hildebrandt of the Wyckoff Historical Society, and Kay Yeomans, a trustee of the Upper Saddle River Historical Society. Sponsors included the Coalition of Northwest Bergen County Historical Organizations, including Allendale, Franklin Lakes, The Hermitage (Ho-Ho-Kus), Mahwah, Ramsey, Ridgewood, Oakland, Upper Saddle River, and Wyckoff.
