Matter of Convenience. , Mary Todd, wife. of Abraham Lin- éoln, was the cort of woman who s described as “capable and upright.” Lincoln, it_is testified by biographers, was: not deeply. in love :with Mary, elther before, or. dfter_their margiage. As.a matter. of fact, bis heart was burled in the grave of-his first' love, and ‘he had- ‘proposed marriage to a} second and:; unwilling: young: woman, By the- time -he married- Mary Todd, who was nelther beautiful nor. gra- clous, he had come to regard marriage a8 a necessity rather than as 'the ulti- mate result of love and romance. Their courtship was long and suf- fered many. bumps’ and . separations before it culminated. in marriage. When Lincoln first. met Miss Todd she was only sixteen years .old ‘and was being courted by Stephen Doug- las ‘the great. man’s rival in many things. Lincoln had suggested in. a rather offhand way that he would marry. her. fully withdraw- from the compact. But; Mary, with prophetic’ vision, had -an idea :that he woyld one’day reach the :White House and she was deter- mined to be Its mistress. Ancient Myth of ‘the Forget-Me.Not.
