, Nos. 7 and 18. LORD Baltimore's struggle with the Jesuits. 115 the day of his death. It was the purpose of Baltimore to in- troduce a feudal system whose burdens, heavier than Eno-land had known since Magna Charta, included l)oth knight service and aids in money. It was through no lack of purpose on the part of the proprietary that outworn feudalism languished upon the soil of the new world. The plans of Baltimore con- templated the division of the province into baronies and man- ors. Under t...his S3^stem the lord of a manor must pledge the maintenance of twenty men to secure the property and pay 20 shillings annually on every 1, 000 acres of land acquired. It was not enough for the manorial lord to equip for battle and maintain in the field 15 freemen; he must also recognize the authority of the muster master and accept unquestioningly all the fines, forfeitures, and punishments this functionary might impose.^ In 1638 the Jesuits held at least one manor. The superior of the mission and two other fathers were twice summoned to the provincial assembly that passed the anti- ecclesiastical laws, but twice declined to appear.
