RE: Lincoln/Douglas debate

I don't know about being engaged, but Douglas was an eligible bachelor when Mary was courting.

Douglas was 5'4" - hence the Little Giant handle. An astute politician, my favorite anecdote about Douglas was that at Lincoln's first inaugural, as Lincoln stood up to be inaugurated, Douglas held his hat.
