THE FIRST ooLoRED LAWYER.

who Was the First COIOred Man
Admitted TO the Bar I'm the United
States?
This question having been raised by the
statement relative to the late Mr.. Robert
Morris, of Boston, that he was the first col
ored man admitted to practice law in this
country and knowing that that position was
claimed for another-the Hon. Macon b.
Allen. of South CarOlina-and regarding q
settlement of the point as of some his
torical importance, we called upon Judge
Allen, who is now in Washington, and re-
quested an interview upon the subject.
"Who was the first colored man ever ad-
mitted to practice law in this country, if
you know?' we asked.
81 was admitted before any other colored
man." the Judge said, "as has always been
conceded by everybody, so far as | am
aware. But let me give you the dates Of
admission of the first two of them. 1t is
not thing necessarily resting upon any
persons memory, but the records of the
courts in which the admissions took place,
which are public, and open to everybody,
will satisfy all who may be pleased to
refer to them or the question. | was

of that name), at Portland, Me-, on examin-

of Hon. Samuel L. Sewall, admitted to
practice, at the April term Of the Common
Pleas, in the year 1S45. Mr.. Robert Morris,
late of Boston, was admitted to the bar in
that city, February 2, 1Si7. All can see
how the case stands. l do not wonder" said
the judge, that mistake in this matter has
occurred, for removed from Boston, where
had been in practice ever since my admission
as above, some fifteen years ago, and have
not visited that place since. Where popula-
tion changes, as it does in large cities, one
out of sight is apt to be soon out of mind.
