William the First claimed all England by conquest. His good feelings revolted at the hereditary punishments he had inflicted. A case occurred in which he decided against his own arbitrary act. Sherborn, an English gentleman, was owner of a castle and lands in Norfolk. The "Conqueror" gave the estate to one Warren, a Norman, who took ! ion. The son of the rightful proprietor, when tine- became quiet, claimed as heir-at-law; and upon full trial, in presence of the king, who sat mi court, it was d...ecided that the confiscation and grant by the Conqueror Were VOld, ami that the claimant was enti- tled to Ids inheritance. , Tin- numerous bilh of attainder, too. Passed by the parliament, have generally been repealed, ami the property restored or compen- sated. They are now in disrepute and disused. 13 Our Confiscation Law is, in character and effect, a bill of attain- der, — and, therefore, prohibited by the Constitution. There is one feature in it that is objectionable, even beyond the divestiture of property, — because it tends to make households the scenes of outrage and blood.
