Lincoln's quote comes from a letter to Horace Greeley, where he explains the purpose to end the rebellion was to save the Union, and he believed the end of slavery would save it. Lincoln at the end of the letter stated his "personal wish that all men every where could be free" [Link]

NNN. Lincoln still said this. Other sentences in any letter do not erase Lincoln's statement as presented here.

Lincoln's only concern was to "save the Union". On his words "if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that." [Link]

Misleading without context. See paragraph beginning: "I would save the Union. I would save it the shortest way under the Constitution... My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery." [Link]
