New Light On Lincoln's Boyhood

"Abe and grandmother looked just alike. We laid their pictures side by
side once and grandmother was the spittin' image — even to the mole on his nose and the funny way his lower lip stuck out."

Le Grand himself looks just like Lincoln — minus the mole. He has the
same jutting chin, long nose and heavy eyebrows and long, rangy build~ The boys back in Jasper, Ark.— the ones that knew about us — used to tease me because they said I ever, walked like him," Le Grand said."

Speaking about a "spittin' image" of Abraham Lincoln... Who was the then 43 years old tall man, calling himself the “Second Abraham Lincoln”, and yes, indeed a spitting image of him, born on the Thomas Lincoln farm in Coles County, Ill. who announced himself a candidate for the U.S. presidency? In what year and what was his relationship with Lincoln?
