A popular verdict" / T.J. Brittain, del. [signed on stone]
Ulysses S. Grant, wearing a skirt and a cloak with hood, and holding a basket with a bottle labeled "Philadelphia Cordial," approaches Uncle Sam, who is sitting at a desk. Grant asks for an extension of his lease on the White House, but Uncle Sam declines, saying, "... I've given the lease to 'Honest Horace Greeley' who will take better care of the place than you have." Horace Greeley walks off to the left holding the lease.; "American News Co., sole agents for supplying the trade."
