A N D it is our farther Will and Pleasure, That the said _William Penn_,
his Heirs and Assigns, shall from Time to Time constitute and appoint an
Attorney or Agent, to reside in or near our City of _London_, who shall
make known the Place where he shall dwell, or may be found, unto the
Clerks of our Privy-Council for the Time being, or one of them, and
shall be ready to appear in any of our Courts at _Westminster_, to
answer for any Misdemeanor that shall be committed, or by any wilful
Default or Neglect permitted by the said _William Penn_, his Heirs or
Assigns, against the Laws of Trade and Navigation; and after it shall be
ascertained in any of our said Courts, what Damages we or our Heirs or
Successors shall have sustained by such Default or Neglect, the said
_William Penn_, his Heirs or Assigns, shall pay the same within one Year
after such Taxation, and Demand thereof, from such Attorney; or in case
there shall be no such Attorney by the Space of one Year, or such
Attorney shall not make Payment of such Damages within the Space of a
Year, and answer such other Forfeitures and Penalties within the said
Time, as by the Acts of Parliament in _England_ are and shall be
provided, according to the true Intent and Meaning of these Presents;
then it shall be lawful for us, our Heirs and Successors, to seize and
resume the Government of the said Province or Country, and the same to
retain until Payment shall be made thereof: But notwithstanding any such
Seizure or Resumption of the Government, nothing concerning the
Propriety or Ownership of any Lands, Tenements, or other Hereditaments,
or Goods or Chattles, of any of the Adventurers, Planters, or Owners,
other than the respective Offenders there, shall any ways be affected or
molested thereby.
