Freeman was first justice of the Court of Common Pleas for Barnstable County. He "was an active patriot during the Revolution, held command of a regiment of militia in the expedition to Rhode Island, and served as brigadier general of militia from, 1781 till 1793. He performed various services in the legislature, was judge of probate for forty-seven years, judge of the common pleas for thirty years, and a member of congress from Massachusetts from 1795 till 1799. He was one of the best extempore speakers of the day, and was distinguished as a physician and surgeon." [Wilson: APPLETON'S CYCLOPAEDIA OF AMERICAN BIOGRAPHY, VOL. 2. Page 540.] This, his only publication, "furnishes an excellent statement of his opinion in law, religion, morals, and politics" [DAB].
