Description
Excerpt from Vaughan''s Freedmen''s Pension Bill: Being an Appeal in Behalf of Men Released From Slavery; A Plea for American Freedmen and a Rational Proposition to Grant Pensions to Persons of Color Emancipated From Slavery
Be just to the blacks of the days of slavery. Their recognition as citizens, worthy of compensation for past errors of the Govern ment, will do more to elevate the fame of a great nation that dares to be just, even at a late hour, than all the story of its brilliant achievements in arms. The glory of American freedom will be made perfect in the pension of the surviving slaves of the ante bellum period. valter R. Vaughan.
