Benjamin.

The Twentieth Century Biographical Dictionary of Notable
Americans: Volume I
BOUDINOT, Elias, philanthropist, was born in Philadelphia, Pa.,
May 2, 1740; son of Elias and Catherine (Williams) Boudinot. He
received an excellent education, and, after studying law with
his brother-in-law, Richard Stockton, a signer of the
Declaration of Independence, he was admitted to practice in New
Jersey, Nov. 9, 1760. On Sept. 11, 1770, he was licensed as
sergeant-at-law, and in 1790 Yale college conferred upon him the
honorary degree of LL.D. On June 11, 1774, he was made a member
of the committee of correspondence for Essex county, N.J. In
1775 he was one of the deputies who attended the provincial
congress of New Jersey. In 1777 he was elected
commissary-general of prisoners, and while holding this office,
failing to receive sufficient money from Congress to satisfy the
pressing necessities of the prisoners, he drew generously from
his own resources and borrowed from his friends. In December,
1777, he was elected a delegate to the Continental Congress, and
in the spring of 1778 was appointed by General Washington to
meet a British commissioner and arrange an exchange of
prisoners. He also effected an exchange of General Lee, who had
been taken prisoner in December. 1776. He retained the office of
commissary-general of prisoners until 1779, and his term in
Congress having ended in 1778, he was again elected in 1781,
holding his seat until 1784. In November, 1782, he was chosen
president of Congress, and in this official capacity signed the
treaty of peace with England.
In 1788 he was elected a representative to the 1st U.S.
Congress, serving by re-election in the 2d and 3d congresses. In
1795 President Washington appointed him director of the U.S.
mint; in 1805 he resigned the office, and retired from all
public duties, and devoted himself to the study of biblical
literature at his home in Burlington, N.J. He was one of the
founders of the American Bible society in 1816, and its first
president. 'He left many generous bequests for benevolent
objects, in which he was interested. During his lifetime he gave
to the American Bible society the sum of $10,000; to Princeton
college, of which he was a trustee, a natural history cabinet
worth $3,000, and generous sums to various missions. Among his
published works are: "The Age of Revelation" (1790); "The Age of
Reason" (1793); "Second Advent of the Messiah" (1815); "A Star
in the West" (1815), and "A Life of the Rev. William Tennent"
(1806). (See "Life of Elias Boudinot," by J. J. Boudinot, 1896.)
He died Oct. 24, 1821.
