General Grant Opposed to a Third Term
The Troy Times reports Gen. Grant never contemplated a third term and hates the idea as sensational chatter. The notion began as a New York Herald stunt and was parried by critics who later flattered it as reality. In San Francisco, James Lick’s will bequeaths 1.78 million to public works and charities, with substantial sums for a telescope, monuments, orphanages, libraries, and a bronze monument, plus provisions for relatives and a life income.
