Involvement with Grover Cleveland
Bryant was Grover Cleveland's doctor and was the lead surgeon in the super-secret operations for the removal of the President's oral cancer and the following political cover-up.

 * By the way, Bryant's name is Joseph Decatur and he delivered Grover and Frances Cleveland's second child, Esther, on 9 September 1893, the only child of a President ever to be born in the White House itself. Wordreader (talk) 05:18, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Expanded Article
I was reading the news from 100 years ago today and came across Bryant's obit. Looking for more information about him, I was disappointed to find that his entry was just a single sentence. So, I expanded the article by basically mashing together two different obituaries.

Not sure if I did it right, particularly with the citations, so any input is appreciated. Jet Jaguar (talk) 23:01, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
