William McKinley actually said...

"If there have been wrongs committed, the wrong doers must not escape conviction and punishment."

"The records of the War Department and the assistance of its officers shall be subject to your call."

"In my own behalf and for the nation I extend to you and the officers and men of your command sincere thanks and congratulations for the conspicuously gallant conduct displayed in your campaign"

"Receive for yourself and for the officers, sailors, and marines of your command my thanks and congratulations and those of the nation for the gallant conduct all have again so conspicuously displayed."
