In looking at this subject recently in my otfice, T could not but recur to a list of applicants for pensions, under the actof 1818, when I was clothed with authority to examine the qualifications of appli- cants, and found within the little circle of my residence, nineteen colored persons whose claims, I believe, were well founded and successful. I can- not refrain from mentioning one aged black man, Primus Babcock, who proudly presented to me an honorable discharge from service during the war,... dated at the close of it, wholly in the hand writing of George Wash- ington. Nor can I forget the expression of his feelings when informed, after this discharge had been sent to the War Department, as a proof of his services, that it would not be returned. At his request it was written for, as he seemed inclined to spurn the pension, and reclaim the discharge. Was not Primus a citizen ? " an illustrious citizen ?" [Provisions of United States Constitution and Laivs.^ The term citizen occurs but a few times in the constitution of the United States — which was adopted in about six years afle** the peace.
