TLS: "Grover Cleveland", 1p, 8½x11. Princeton, N.J., 1903 December 26. To H.L.
Bowlby, Esq., Asbury Park, N.J. In full: "I have just returned from a Southern trip and find an
invitation awaiting me to attend the dinner to be given Mayor-elect McClellan on the 4th of
Jan'y. I have not accepted this invitation and it is very doubtful whether I shall do so, I have
therefore given no thought to the preparation of an address to be made on that occasion." George
B. McClellan was the son and namesake of the Civil War General who was defeated for
President by Lincoln in 1864. He served in Congress as a Democrat from March 4, 1895 to
December 21, 1903, five days before this letter was written, when he resigned, having been
elected Mayor of New York City. Folds, one vertical touches the "C" in Cleveland.
