Grant does not recall her father-in-law attending church during the five years she lived in his house. She doubts the assertion that Grant chose the Bible passage over which he took his Oath of Office. She corrects his version of Grant baptism, insisting that Grant did not thank the minister but simply remarked "You surprised me."
