[In Carl Sandburg's Biography of Abraham Lincoln] "On the evening of Lincoln's election he had thrown himself on one of the haircloth sofas at home, just after the first telegrams of November 6 had told him he was elected President, and looking into a bureau mirror across the room he saw himself full length, but with two faces . It bothered him; but when he lay down again there in the glass again where the two faces one paler than the other ". It kind of makes you wonder about the two faces on the 5 dollar bill.

She appeared to him holding a new born baby , Donne's wife was pregnant at the time, but the apparition was a portent of great sadness.
