Grover Cleveland actually said...

"The fact that the claim of the beneficiary has never been presented to the pension Bureau influences in some degree my action in withholding my approval of this bill."

"There does not appear to be any medical testimony to support the claim thus made by the widow."

"It is evident that he obtained a large sum as pension to which he must have known he was not entitled."

"It certainly appears from the report of the committee that the beneficiary named in this bill was not in the service of the Government at such a time."
