Grover Cleveland actually said...

"I concur in the judgment of the Pension Bureau, which rejected the widow's claim for pension on the ground that 'the death of the soldier was not due to his military service.'"

"There has been much testimony taken in this case, and a great deal of it is exceedingly contradictory."

"justice will be done in the case."

"It is proposed by this bill to grant a pension to the beneficiary named as the widow of Thomas Connelly."
