That bond was ENGLISH LAW IN PENNSYLVANIA. 27 not relaxed for a century. At length the war of the Revolution, severing this from the mother country, destroyed the last vestiges of fealty, and swept off from the land every feudal incident with which it had been burdened. In the language of quite a recent case, "The State is lord paramount as to no man's land. The State became the pro- prietor of all lands; but, instead of giving them like a feudal lord to an enslaved tenantry, she has sold them ...for the best price she could get. We are to regard the Revolution and the Acts of As- sembly passed for vesting the estates of the late proprietaries of Pennsylvania in the Common- wealth as emancipating every acre of the soil of Pennsylvania from the grand characteristic of the feudal system. Even as to the lands held by the proprietaries themselves (after the Revolution in accordance with special legislative provisions), they held them as other citizens held, under the Com- monwealth, and that by a title purely allodial.
