Then they make a sug- gestion to the Governor, which, if he had been wise, he would have adopted and dropped the matter. They point out that the Charter gave him ample authority to raise a troop him- self, and that they did not propose to interfere with his ac- tions in this respect, provided he did not trample upon any- one's conscience. The clause of the Charter granting this authority, which William Penn accepted, it may be inter- esting to note : " To the Proprietor aforesaid, his Heirs and... Assigns, by themselves or their Captains, or other of their Officers, to levy, muster, and train all sorts of Men of what Condition soever or wheresoever born in the said Province of Penn- sylvania for the time being, and to make Warr and to pur- sue the Enemies and Robbrs aforesaid as well by Sea as by Land, even without the Limits of the said Province, and by God's Assistance to vanquish and take them, and being taken to put them to Death by the Law of Warr, or to save them at their Pleasure; and to do all, and every other thing which unto the Charge and Office of a Captain General of an Army belongeth, or hath accustomed to belong, as fully and freely as any Captain General of an Army hath ever had the same.
