The correct answer is the second option.

In the letter, when Lincoln discusses why he did not pursue military emancipation, he states several times that he "did not think it an indispensable necessity." 

I believe the answer is: He did not find it completely necessary.

In the beginning, Lincoln believed that military action is not necessary because they can appeal to human emotion by making people acknowledging the right of the slaves as human beings. He soon change his mind after the southern states started seceding.
