Kennedy. Thousands of other persons also held flickering candles at the service and heard the Chief Executive give a moving eulogy to the assassinated President Kennedy. Paraphrasing Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, Mr. Johnson said: “For let us here on this Christmas night determine that John Kennedy did not live or die in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom and that we may achieve in our time and for all time the ancient vision of peace on earth, good will toward all men.” President Johnson called on all Americans to use Christmas as a time of thanks-giving, hope and dedication.
