Grover Cleveland Background:
Because his two terms were not consecutive and were four years apart from each other (1885 to 1889 and 1893 to 1897), Cleveland is considered the 22nd and 24th American presidents. During the second term, he maintained financial stability while gold reserves were being sent overseas and worked to repeal the Sherman Silver Purchase Act.
