Nomination of Cleveland by National Democratic Convention
The Illinois event details the July 28 1884 visit by the National Democratic Convention’s Committee to inform Grover Cleveland of his nomination for President. Colonel Vilas chaired the delegation, delivering the formal address, with Cleveland replying on the duties and responsibilities of the office amid a divided Senate and the party’s platform. The document preserves the ceremony’s tone and significance.
