Grover Cleveland actually said...

"This balance was on the 30th day of June, 1877, carried to the surplus fund and covered into the Treasury."

"Thus since that date it seems there has been no Texas indemnity fund, nor is there any such fund now from which the money mentioned in the bill herewith returned can be paid."

"It is directed, however, that this money be paid out of the Texas indemnity fund."

"This bill authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to pay to the party named therein the sum of $905."
