GROVER CLEVELAND.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, _June 23, 1886_.

_To the House of Representatives_:

I return herewith without approval House bill No. 6895, entitled "An act

granting a pension to Sarah Harbaugh."

The husband of this claimant enlisted August 1, 1861, and was discharged

September 7, 1864. He received a gunshot wound in the left ankle in May,

1863, and died suddenly of disease of the heart October 4, 1881. He was

insane before his death, but in my opinion any connection between his

injury and his service in the Army is next to impossible.
