I have been at considerable pains to gather, not only all the vetoes, but as far as possible all the bills retained by the Presidents, 501] American Constitutions. 41 after the adjournment of Congress, or to use the common phrase, "pocketed. " My list may not be absolutely com- plete, but is very nearly so. I find from Washington to . Arthur, inclusive, seventy-seven vetoes of both kinds. Forty-three of these emanated from four Presidents, viz : Jackoo, eleven, Tyler, ten, Johnson, thirteen, Ha...yes, nine.
