Well, it is said to be 703 words, however, in the body from what everyone is use to seeing, from "At this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential office there is less occasion..." to "...may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations." is 699 words. Then another Fellow countrymen is 2. So there is discrepancy but it is safe to say from 699 to 703.
It was the second shortest inaugural speech to date.
