I guess you just forgot to include that part, huh?

No, but that is another fine non-sequitur that you have posted. It not only doesn't contradict the Douglass' selection that I posted, it in fact restates his theme:

though the Union was more to him than our freedom or our future,

It contradicts what you were implying. That Douglass did not believe that Lincoln was interested in the welfare of the black population of this country or that he cared if slavery ended at all. Quoting out of context does that.
