ORIGIN OF THE FREEDMEN’S SAVINGS BANK 27 the hurry and confusion incident upon the close of the session, this substitution of the bills was not noticed; it has never been explained; it may have been a mistake due to carelessness, or it may have been intentional. Some years later there was a disposition on the part of critics to search for ulterior motives behind these changes. But the only important difference was the omis- sion of the name of Chief Justice Chase.’ 2 In most of the unofficial copies of the law published at the time the amendment fixing the location of the bank at Washington, District of Columbia, is omitted. The Nation and The Banker's Magazine both as- serted ten years later that the District of Columbia amendment and the Chase amendment also were purposely omitted from the enrolled bill. But in the laws published in the Globe, 38 Cong., 2 Sess., appendix, p. 143, only the name of Chase is omitted. Cong. Globe, 38 Cong., 2 Sess., pt. I, pp. 1371, 1391, 1403; Banker's Magazine, June 1875; The Nation, April 15, 1875.
