Grover Cleveland Typed Letter Signed, Sending Thanks for "congratulation received soon after my nomination to the Presidency" TLS, one page, 7.75 x 10, Gray Gables letterhead, August 15, 1892. Letter to Caesar Cone, in full: "I desire to acknowledge with sincere thanks your letter of congratulation received soon after my nomination to the Presidency. I assure you the kind words contained in your note are fully appreciated." In very good to fine condition, with overall creasing. Written less than two months after Cleveland secured the Democratic nomination in June 1892, this letter dates to the opening of his rematch against incumbent President Benjamin Harrison. Cleveland would go on to defeat Harrison in November, returning to the White House for a second, nonconsecutive term—a first in American presidential history at the time.
