Perhaps, to understand this subject the better, it should be borne in mind that the proprietary, although Governor and political head of the Province. yet care- fully and rigidly kept up the distinction between his political and private rights. He exercised the same absolute power to sell. to whom he pleased, and on what terms he pleased, which every owner of land- ever- cises, and resisted any interference of the Assembly . with these rights constantly and successfully, by his personal influence or that of his Governors here, or by procuring the repeal by the king in council of every law infringing on such his private right -. 1, a result, prices varied for the first half-century -- greatly varied -every month and week and day, by him and hi- com- missioners of property ; in short, that difference in price of lands nearly contiguous, or actually con- tiguous, was what constantly occurred. There was not always injustice or impropriety in thi- ; the differ- enee of soil or location may have been the can-e. Be- century cash was not generally paid on taking out a warrant. The price then very often, if not alway- depended in some degree upon the ability to pay cash in hand. No man of his day was more distressed for money than William Penn. Ile was obliged to mort- gage his Province, and was confined for debt in the Fleet Prison in England. Nece-sity compelled hit., therefore, to sell for cash at very low rates ; and the propriety and moral necessity of having his Province settled and cultivated made it proper to sell to those who would cultivate and improve the country, and agree to pay interest.


Those who had purchased warrant- from William Penn in England, and who had deeds, generally took warrants to survey their lands, and often the first war- rant was for only a part, and they might take another warrant or warrant- for the residue of their purchase, or might -ell the whole or a part, or several parts to several persons, each of whom could take a warrant for his quantity or portion. These were called first purchases. On these warrants, or their aliences, no money was due, and no, price mentioned.


From and after 1732 until the 7th of December. 1762. the price was gla Ub. per cent .; Blutes charged from six months atter .Le date of tin war- rant when the land was not improved, but it im- proved. then from the connoencement thereof. Povin


The prices for land varied. Previous to 1782 there . Dec. 27. 1702, to Dec. 27, 1998, the price was 98, car-


William Penn, the first proprietary. died in Eng- land in 1718, and his son Thomas continued in his minority until 1731; Richard, his other son, until i sides, it must be recollected that for more than half a 1782. In this interval their land-office was shut up, so that during that time warrants and patents were not regularly granted by the commissioners of prop- erty for tran ferring lands to applicant -. To further the settlement of the then Province within that pe- riod, ticket- signed by one of the commissioners of property, or by the secretary of the land-office, came into practice. Hence, it would seem, sprung up im- provements. The old rule being once relaxed, greater liberties were taken by the people, and emigrants from abroad often seated themselves on vacant land- without permission, and made valuable improve- ments. The usage of the proprietary land-office was favorable to these settlements. The interest- of the proprietaries were promoted, and the pre-emption of the lands they occupied was generally considered as belonging to the settlers. The inhabitants of the frontier counties in partienlar availed themselves of the usage, and in many instance- went much further than was ever intended by the lords of the soil or their otlieers.


Thomas Penn arrived at Philadelphia in 1:32. No warrants appear to have been is-ned to take up land. but only to resurvey, from 1:50 to 1799, when Thoma- Poun first -igned warants; and in that year he signed many warrant- to settlers for lands, and even stating settlement- made many years before.

GENERAL HISTORY.


rency, per cent. From Dec. 27, 1763, to Aug. 6, 1765, the price was again .$15 10%, per cent .; but if the land was improved previously to 1762, 815 10g., and interest accordingly. From Aug. 6, 1765, to July 1, 1784, the price was €5 sterling for unim- proved land; but if improved, the time at which the improvement was made governed the price. It may be stated in this connection that no price was ever fixed for lands within the manors or proprietary surveys, these being the private property of the proprietaries. The commissioners of property gen- erally sold them at a higher rate than other land-, or on warrants " to agree." In 1739 and ever afterwards they were sold by special agents under special power -.


It is much to be regretted that the correspondence between the proprietaries and their secretary, James Logan, and the provincial surveyors from 1710 to 1740 has never been colla'ed. It would greatly sub- serve the interests of our early hi-tory by throwing light upon a number of transactions in land, and the cause of the state of feeling on the part of the early settlers. The Scotch-Irish were not treated with the same consideration accorled the Germans and Swiss. The latter could locate anywhere, the former not. The Scotch-Irish settled on the manor of Conestoga, but they were removed by force. their cabins burne 1, and told to go beyond the Conewago. The Germans occupied immediately the land from which the Scotch- Irish had been driven, and warrants therefor to them shortly afterwards granted. All except less than five hundred acres of this celebrated manor was taken up by German settlers, and that was a locality where a few Shawanese Indians had planted themselves, and which in our subsequent history became more than notorious. The Scotch-Irish ejected from the pur- chased and surveyed lands were pished across the Conewago and Swatara, where they were allowed to remain. Many of these had settled ten to fifteen years upon the land ere the surveyors entered upon it, and the privilege was afforded to take out warrant -. Applications were made at once, but many years elapsed ere the warrant was issued, and frequently the right was transferred by one to another through purchase ere right in the soil was secured from the land-office.


We herewith give the record of such warrants. Many who secured the original warrant- soll within a few days thereafter a portion of their land to their neighbors or relatives, as an examination of deeds will evidence. Many of those for whom twenty-five or fifty acres are warranted were for land, adjoining their other lands. There will no doubt be a surprise to our readers at the absence of names of individuals who it is well known were early -ettler -. This is due to the fact that deed- were given by the proprietari. - to the " original parehoser- ' and others of large tracts of land, giving simply the names of the counties and! sometimes the manor- in which they were located. These persons sold to many of the early zotticr-, and


although the latter were really the persons entitled to the original warrants, yet through either being re- lieved from quit-rent or perchance purchasing on more favorable terms, their deeds to the soil came not through the land-office, but through speculators and others.


The date of the warrant is far from the date of settlement. It is frequently stated in these that the land had been settled some years previously. Fre- quently the interest was to be computed from a period many years anterior to the date of warrants, and to these we have affixed an asterisk ("), which give the flate interest commences, and that may have been years after a permanent improvement had been made. There is one thing to the credit of the proprietaries he it said, they never attempted to collect interest be- yond the date of purchase from the Indian-, but those who had already made improvements a higher price -was fixed for land and for quit-rents.


Few, perchance, will attach any particular impor- tance to the record of early warrants given. It has been a work of considerable labor and research, and if not interesting reading in the main, is of real his- torie value.
