	BRITISH EMPIRE - LoveToKnow Article on BRITISH EMPIRE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)

		Colonial governors are classed as governors-general; governors; lieut.-governors; administrators; high commissioners; and commissioners, according to the status of the colony and dependency, or group of colonies and dependencies, over which they preside.
		The extent of this burden was emphasized in 1909 by the revelations as to the increase of the German (and the allied Austrian) fleet.

	Forfeiture in England and Colonial America
		By the seventeenth century crimes that were considered felonies included murder, manslaughter, witchcraft, larceny, abduction of an heiress with intent to marry her, forgery of a deed or testimonial, transportation of a sheep, and malicious cutting of another man's tongue or his eyes [Veall, 1970:2].
		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.
