Answer:

B. Pride

Step-by-step explanation:

According to The Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln, he makes a speech during the American Civil War, when commissioning the National Soldier's Cemetery. He recounts the past deeds of his ancestors and feels a sense of pride.

Also, according to the Letter to His Son by Robert E. Lee, he talks to his son about the impending war between the states and Robert Lee informs his son that he would fight for the state of Virginia if the conflict escalated to war. He was also filled with pride at the actions of their ancestors.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
