Happy Mother’s Day to all!

Thanks for this information, Gene. I am still not clear as to a possible source for Holland, Townsend, and Thomas for adding the word "angel" to the quote as reported by Herndon. Was Lincoln's quote purposely altered to try to show which mother he was referring to? Herndon didn't include the word "angel" in the quote, but the attribution is still to him. I guess I am missing something.
