Grover Cleveland 22nd President 1885-1889 24th President 1893-1897 In the 1850’s one of the head teachers was William N. Cleveland, who for two years was connected with the school. His interest was temporary, as he was a student at a theological seminary near the Institution and was preparing for the ministry. His younger brother was through his influence employed first in a clerical capacity and later as both secretary and teacher in the literary department. This was Grover Cleveland. He is often mentioned in the autobiographies of Fanny Crosby as someone that helped her develop with her writing and helping her to be more assertive in advocating for her rights. The youth
who became President of the United States developed in the period of his
service, though less than two years, an interest in the welfare of persons
with blindness that he never lost.
