		Colonies are supposed to be useful either for political or commercial purposes, and with reference to these objects they should be divided into two classes, which should be considered separately; first, military stations, acquired chiefly for political purposes; secondly, colonies, properly so-called, supposed to be of value chiefly for commercial objects.

	Forfeiture in England and Colonial America
		It was abolished in 1846, as was forfeiture for suicide and unknown murder victims [Finkelstein, 1973:170].
		Some were royal colonies (such as Virginia) thought to be under direct control of the Crown; others were chartered colonies (e.g., Massachusetts) in which extensive governing rights were given to a charter company; still others were proprietary colonies (e.g., Maryland and Pennsylvania) in which a single owner had been granted vast authority [Hall, 1989:14].
		This created a difficult situation, because slaves, in many of the colonies, were considered chattel and could, theoretically, be included as part of a forfeiture if their owner were convicted and attained for a capital felony.

	Mulford Essay: Teaching the American Literatures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		I use two techniques to try to help students realize, first, how hard it might have been for the English settlers and, second, how difficult it was (and is) for members of non-dominant groups (whether they are ethnically or racially or by class differentiated) to speak.
		In this context, students begin to understand the pains at which Jefferson attempted to represent, in the drafted Declaration of Independence, the view (stricken out of the published Declaration) that slavery as a system was foisted by the British crown upon supposedly unwilling colonists.
		This is another useful example of the doubleness of enlightened colonialism: Jefferson was indeed curious, but the concerns reflected back his own culture to him rather than elucidating the cultural concerns of the peoples under scrutiny.
