He may have had some neuro-muscular handicap of some sort. illustrations exist and he does not seem to be a handicapped man-no specs, crutches, eye patches or other visible disability marks.. I have never heard of this. it seems a bit like the Sunday School myth that Jesus Christ was six foot tall. there are no (Bertillion files) in the New Testament, period! there is no direct evidence as to hall tall He was anyhow. I would imagine the same for Mr. Adams. Maybe the Adams family used carriage horses as that was a more classier mode of transportation as opposed to (saddle mount) I had plenty of American history as a kid- maybe too much, and have never heard this anecdote. Okay Franklin wore glasses-and improved them-bifocals, but Adams, no handicap referent to my knowledge.
