3023. FLAG, Usurpation of.—
It will be
necessary for all our public agents to exert
themselves with vigilance * * * to prevent
the vessels of other nations from usurping
our flag. This usurpation tends to commit
us with the belligerent powers, to draw
on those vessels truly ours, vigorous visitations
to distinguish them from the counterfeits,
and to take business from us.—
To C. W. F. Dumas. Washington ed. iii, 535.

1793)
