Grover Cleveland: “Let us follow the way it points out; it will not mislead us.”

A careful examination of this bill has convinced me that for the reasons given and others not specifically stated its provisions are unnecessarily harsh and oppressive.

I am unable to discover any principle which justifies her restoration to that relationship upon the death of her second husband.

I return herewith without my approval House bill No. 9469.

A departure from this rule, even in aid of cases of hardship, can not fail to establish precedents inviting the abandonment of reasonable and justifiable pension theories.
