Slug: 13th Amendment update - Aug. 22, 1993
900 words
The following is an exact transcription of a research update printed by Mr.
David Dodge, whose address and phone number follow. My transcription notes
are [[double-square-bracketed]] and indicated as transcriber's notes. My
notes have been checked by Mr. Dodge. The research has been ongoing for at
least seven years since Mr. Dodge first re-discovered a mysteriously
"disappeared" 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution that was
apparently ratified in 1819.
I have been aware of Mr. Dodge's archival research efforts for a number of
years, and he has recently asked that his work be made known publicly. He
is willingly publishing his address and phone/fax number so that interested
persons can contact him for verification of the information contained in
this news release.

- An update on the amendment to the United States Constitution that the
attorneys "disappeared" in order to establish a claim of superiority -
Titles of Nobility over the people - Article XIII - updated August 22,
1993.
Article 13, ratified in 1819, reads as follows:
If any citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive or
retain and title of nobility or honour, or shall, without the consent
of Congress, accept and retain any present, pension, office or
emolument of any kind whatever, from any emperor, king, prince or
foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen of the United
States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or
profit under them, or either of them.
The following states and/or territories have published the Titles of
Nobility [TON] amendment in their official publications as a ratified

Totals: 24 States in 78 separate official government publications.
"Pimsleur's", a checklist of legal publications, does not list many of the
above volumes. [[These volumes are generally either the Civil Code or the
Compiled Statutes of the respective States (ie: Civil Code of Virginia
1819). - transcriber's note.]]
* This volume was published twice in 1845. The first published the TON
amendment, the second was published right after Congress set the
requirements for Missouri's admission as a State. The TON amendment was
replaced with a notation that this amendment was printed in error in 1835.
Additional publications:
"The History of the World", Samuel Maunder, Harper, New York, 1850, vol. 2,
p.462. Re-published by Wm. Burtis, Baltimore, 1856, vol. 2, p.462.
"The Rights of an American Citizen", Benj. Oliver, Counsellor at Law,
Boston, 1832, p. 89.
"Laws of the United States of America", Bioren and Duane, Philadelphia &
Washington, 1815, vol. 1, p.74. [See: Note]
"The American Politician", M. Sears, Boston, 1842, p.27.
"Constitution of the United States", C.A. Cummings, Lynn, Massachusetts,
not dated, p.35.
"Political Text Book Containing the Declaration of Independence", Edward
Currier, Blake, Holliston, Mass. 1841, p.129.
"Brief Exposition of the Constitution of the United States for the use of
Common Schools", John S. Hart, A.M. (Principal of Philadelphia High School
and Professor of Moral Mental and Political Science), Butler and Co.,
Philadelphia, 1850, p.100.
"Potter's Justice", H. Potter, U.S. District Court Judge, Raleigh, North
Carolina, 1828, p.404, 2nd Edition [the 1st Ed., 1816, does not have TON].
Note: The "Laws of the United States" was published by John Duane.
Without doubt, Duane was aware of Virginia's plan to ratify this amendment
which targeted, amongst other things, the emolument of banking and the
agents of foreign banking interests, the attorneys. Currency manipulation
led to the failure of numerous banks and in turn to many a personal
bankruptcy, including that of Thomas Jefferson. The allegiance of
attorneys** has always been with the money state, whether pharaoh, caesar,
monarch or corporate monopoly.
** See: "Acts of Virginia", Feb. 20, 1812, p.143.
The Court, in "Horst v. Moses", 48 Alabama 129, 142 (1872) gave the
following description of a title of nobility:
To confer a title of nobility, is to nominate to an order of persons
to whom privileges are granted at the expense of the rest of the
people. It is not necessarily hereditary, and the objection to it
arises more from the privileges supposed to be attached than to the
otherwise empty title or order. These components are forbidden
separately in the terms "privilege", "honor", and "emoluments", as
they are collectively in the term "title of nobility". The
prohibition is not affected by any consideration paid or rendered for
the grant.
"Bouvier's Law Dictionary", 15th Edition, vol. 1 (1885) lists the due
process amendments as 5 and 15 [15 was re-numbered to 14] on p.571.
The prohibition of titles of nobility estops the claim of eminent domain
through fictions of law. Eminent domain is the legal euphemism for
expropriation, and unreasonable seizure given sanction by the targets of
this amendment.
[[Mr. Dodge has also included the following excerpt from - transcriber's
note]] the "Congressional Record" of March 17, 1993, p.1303H:
Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11.
Members of Congress are official trustees presiding over the
greatest re-organization of any bankrupt entity in world history, the
U.S. Government.
We are setting forth hopefully a blue-print for our future. There
are some who say it is a coroner's report that will lead to our
demise.
The attorneys _admit_ that the collapse of every great civilization
occurred after they were granted an _ex officio_ monopoly in the courts.

Note: The ramifications of this earlier 13th Amendment are serious. Mr.
Dodge can answer questions about it, and as soon as he has prepared further
material for publication I will forward it to the CyberNews-Publish list.
I have personally seen the original 13th Amendment in an 1819 Virginia
Civil Code, and read the cited passages in "Potter's Justice", both in the
original books in the law library at the University of North Carolina,
Chapel Hill. I have personally seen photocopies of many of the works cited
by Mr. Dodge and I am satisfied that this is indeed a genuine Amendment to
the United States Constitution. - Richard Ginn.
