How He Happened to Settle in
Buffalo and How the West Lost
a Settler.
Grover Cleveland's oldest brother,
William, was at this time a teacher in
the institute for the blind in the city
of New York. He procured for Grover
the place of clerk and assistant
teacher. William had recently gradu-
ated from Hamilton college, and un-
der his tuition Grover devoted all his
leisure time to studying Latin and Eng
liSh literature. At the end of a years
engagement he returned to his mothers
house, where between the times of seek
ing more lucrative employment he still
continued his studies.
He searched for work in Syracuse and
Utica, but was unsuccessful, and finally
he made up his mind to 90 West. On
his way he stopped in Buffalo to visit
his uncle, stock breeder, named Lewis
Allen. Mr.. Allen did not approve of the
Western project. He persuaded his
nephew to remain in Buffalo, giving
him piece of work to do in the
preparation of a book Oh American
Shorthorn cattle, for which he was paid
$50. Nh Allen then procured for him

the dogged perseverance and unflagging
industry which have characterized his
whole career to master the rudiments
of the law and to make himself use
full. Although living with his uncle two
miles out of town, he was always the
first to arrive in the morning and the
last to 90 at night His industry was
appreciated, and in few months he
was given salary of 81 a week. This
was increased from time to time, and
shortly after his admission to the bar in
May, 1859, he was made managing clerk
at $500 year. In 1864 this had risen to
$1,000 year, and then, at the age of
twenty-five, he left the Office to become
assistant district attorney of Erie
i, county.
This position, like every other public
Office he has ever held, came to him
without any solicitation on his part.

ing. A procession, containing four bands,
and over 1000 persons, travelled along the
principal streets for a distance OF over
three miles. Many transparencies, on
which were enscribed suitable political
emblems, were carried In the procession.
Rockets and Roman candles were fired
off in large numbers, and the hearty
cheers of the Democrats, combined with
many tug whistles, made a noise that
could be heard oil over the city. Demo-

along the route were brightly illumin-
ated, many Of them very prettily. Every
window OF the Bostwick three story block
was illuminated. There were immense
crowds on the streets.
