Abraham and Mary in Love

Our sixteenth president Abraham Lincoln was gifted in many ways. By the time he met the love of his life, Mary Elizabeth Todd, he had proposed to two women. One died and the other turned him down. Mary came to Springfield looking for a husband. According to her brother-in-law she could make a minister forget his ministry. Mary could see that Lincoln was a diamond in the rough where others could not. However, they were not the only ones in the relationship. Her sister refused to allow the courtship to continue. How did the odd couple overcome their obstacles and become soul mates. The path was not easy but together they saved the country.
