Little Known Facts: Abraham Lincoln

As some of you may know, I have a very unhealthy adoration for one, Mr. President Abraham Lincoln. Here are some little known facts about the "sexist president" to ever hold office:

• The contents of Lincoln pockets on the night of his assassination were not revealed until February 12, 1976. They contained two pairs of spectacles, a chamois lens cleaner, an ivory and silver pocketknife, a large white Irish linen handkerchief, slightly sued, with "A.Lincoln" embroidered in red, a gold quartz watch fob without a watch, a new silk-lined, leather wallet containing a pencil, a Confederate five-dollar bill, and news clippings of unrest in the Confederate Army, emancipation in Missouri, the Union party platform of 1864, and an article on the presidency by John Bright.
• Lincoln and his wife held senses in the White House. They had a great interest in psychic phenomena.
• There are no direct descendents of Abraham Lincoln even though he had 4 sons.
• Lincoln had the largest shoe-size documented. He wore a size 14! (holla!!)
