Hale Introduces Resolution In Senate On Grant Memorial
The Senate on the 23rd saw Mr. Hale offer a joint resolution to erect in the District of Columbia a memorial building for Ulysses S. Grant. It would house a military and naval museum and may rest the mortal remains of distinguished Americans in the lower court. The title endorses the plan for the court where Grant’s memory is honored. The House later seated Langston in a contested election case, with Miller of South Carolina also declared elected. The vote marked a bitterly contested outcome amid partisan clashes.
