RE: Are those stories about Mary abusive to Abraham overstated???
I'd love to know Mary Lincoln's opinion of Herndon. He was an alcoholic and , as such, must have been a liability as Lincoln's partner in the Law firm. Mary, I'm sure, must have made sure that Herndon was aware of her assessment of his qualities as a human being ... the result would have been that he was unlikely to praise her qualities.
