How did the custom originate of the
president of the United States dating
official documents from the year of the
Declaration of Independence?
There is no law on the subject. 1t
originated before the adoption OF the
constitution, during the days of the
confederacy. The original articles OF
confederation show they were signed
by the delegates "at Philadelphia, in
the state of Pennsylvania. the 9th day
of July in the year of our Lord, ITS,

What was the so called ironeIad oath
Shat once prevailed in some parts of
this country?
1t was not a state or local regula-
tion. as your question might imply, but
a measure that grew out of the war
of the rebellion. In 1862 congress
passed a law that persons appointed
TO Office from the seeded southern
states SHOULD take an oath that they
had in no way aided or abetted seces-
sion. This came to be called the iron
clad oath because n majority of per

take it, but many did who sympathiz-

not actually aided or abetfed It. After
awhile the oath was modified and final

How did negroes come to be called
contrabands-durins the civil war?

How did negroes come to be called
contrabands~during the civil war?
1t was a curious application Of ?
well established principle. Under the
laws Of war a belligerent may hold
as contraband and may seize and con-
denim anything calculated to aid the
enemy and prolong the war. Early in
the war. when General B. +. Butler
was in command at Fortress Monroe,
some fugitive slaves came into his
lines, and as he needed laborers in field
works he put them at work. When
their former owner demanded to know
what the general intended to do with
his negroes the general replied, Il
shall detaIn them as contraband of
war" Butler held that slaves might
be used against the United States gov
ernment by its enemies and were
therefore contraband OF war. From
that time fugitive slaves were called
contrabands.
