Sorry. I might get into the old Congressional Records down at the federal repository some day about it.

The term "freedmen" (or 'freeman') probably refers to a former slave or to former slaves.

The term "freedmen" (or 'freeman') probably refers to a former slave or to former slaves.

Most definitely. The roots of the term "freedman" stem from Roman history and Roman Civil Law.

I would say that status of "freedman" is akin to a bill of attainder in some degree.

This OP raised questions in my mind. I searched online several weeks back and could not find R.S. 2032. The Revised Statutes were also difficult to find online. I came across a .pdf by doing site searches for files and found the R.S. was codified in Volume 18 Part I. Online search engines for this returned no results. This included constitution.org and memory.loc.gov . I was waiting for an opportunity to travel to the closest Federal Repository (60 miles away). Fast forward to yesterday; and Alfred Adask posts this blog (http://adask.wordpress.com/2011/05/30/the-organic-laws-of-the-united-states-of-america/#more-6862); serendipity.

The Freedmen statutes are on page 358.

The links you posted do seem to speak about slaves. Thank you for the links.

While it was worn by the Jacobins during the French Revolution, it was worn by...

Mithra, the Persian Sun God....and a Roman Sun God. Also by Attis...another Sun God.

Looks like 12 hands holding a phallus.


Hanc Tuemur, Hac Nitimur are words which appears on the face of a medallion on the title page of the journal of the proceedings of the Colonial Congress of 1774. “Hanc Tuemur, Hac Nitimur” means “this we defend, this we lean upon”.

It represents Magna Charta as the pedestal on which was raised the column and cap of liberty, supported by twelve hands; one for each of the twelve colonies. [Hurtado v. California (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurtado_v._California), 110 U.S. 516, 554 (U.S. 1884)].

That’s interesting . Justice Henry Baldwin had a different interpretation . Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from January 18, 1830, to April 21, 1844 .

It looks to me like twelve hats on a pillar with twelve men holding it up - (at least until you mentioned it).

I suppose this thread demands a trip to the federal repository for validation. Do you think I can find that symbol in the journals?

More fun info about phrygian cap (http://z10.invisionfree.com/The_Unhived_Mind_II/ar/t18659.htm).
I'm not endorsing that website b.t.w., it's a wild mix of information.
I've not read enough pages on it to form an opinion of it, but I did find some interesting stuff there, like this page about the founder (http://s10.invisionfree.com/The_Unhived_Mind_II/ar/t58583.htm) of the Universal Postal Union.
