MARY LOVE LAWLESs. u:
(She Was Adorcd by Abraham Lincoln
When He Was Young Man, ~

When He Was Young Man.) ~
h
at that time resident of Illinois, to
Miss Mary Hardin at Mount Vernon.
The wedding was one of the swellestec-
casions in the history of Rockcastle
county, and the aristocratic acquaint-
ances of the Mckees and Hardins front
all over the state were invited.
Judge Mckee was Kentuckian and
had gained the friendship of Mr.. Linz
coin before either of them had left the
state. Mr.. Lincoln's home was La Rue
county, and Mckee was raised in Car
rard, but they had met and formed a
strong attachment for each other. Miss
Joplin's father, DR.. Joplin, while imi-
tating the example of Henry Clay, who
rode on horseback through Kentucky
prospecting, became infatuated with
the beauty of Miss Love, the daughter
of n wealthy citizen of Mount Vernon,
and married and settled there. She was
one of the bridesmaids at the McKee,
Hardin wedding, and was pointed out
to Mr.. Lincoln as being the handsomest
girl in all Kentucky. Although Mr..
Lincoln was not a handsome man, his
bright humor and dash made him pop
ular with the girls. Miss Nancy Nc
Kee, sister of the groom, was maid of
honor and stood up with Mr.. Lincoln
and appeared to show jealousy of Mr..
Lincoln's frequent glances and atten-
tions to Miss Joplin, who was II years
his junior and whom nearly every one
considered entirely too young to be re-
ceiving the attentions of young men.
Mr.. Lincoln remained in Kentucky
a week after the wedding and visited
his old home in La Rue county. Owing
to the chafings of her friends Miss Jop-
lin was embarrassed, and although Mr..
Lincoln called on her and spoke to
friends of hers she was rather retiring
when her admirer was present. Mr..
Lincoln soon afterward married Miss
Mary Todd. Miss Joplin was married
at the age of 90 to Mr.. James Richard
Lawless, the son of a wealthy Louisiana
planter, who, having interests in New
York and New Orleans, afforded her the
opportunity for extensive travel. Mr..
and Mrs. Lincoln were treasured friends
of Mrs. Lawless, and frequently visit
ed them.
