ter when his pen touched the paper
His handwriting was small, but clear.
1t was like copper-plate. Probably no
president of recent times used pen
with as much frequency as Cleveland.
The painstaking character of Mr.
Cleveland's work will be realized when
it is known that he made a personal
examination Of every paper that came
before him. This particularly was
true of the records of courts-martial of
officers of the army and navy.
Whether the defendant was an ensign
or an admiral, lieutenant or a gen.
eral, he could depend on Mr.. Cleveland
to give fair consideration to the re-
port of his trial. 1t frequently hap
pened that Mr.. Cleveland detected
flaws in the proceedings of the court,
in which case the officer benefited
either in the way of modification of
his sentence or a new trial.
