It was to draw back such causes to themselves, that the courts of law are said to have invented the artificial and fictitious writ of ejectment, the most effectual remedy for an unjust outer or dispossession of land.
And unconditional surrender is the first step in the direction of an unconditional dispossession of the Imperial establishment and its war prophets, depending primarily on the state of mind of the British people at the time.
Panther and wild-cat under their furry coats felt no thrill of coming dispossession, and saw nothing through their great golden eyes but the dawning of a day just like all other days when "the sun ariseth and they gather themselves into their dens and lay them down."
"With curious apathy, an unaccountable suggestion of impersonality, almost, he did not pause to consider the absence of the intolerant passion which his loss should have occasioned, or to wonder at his bewildered reception of this implication of further dispossession.
"If the nominal proprietor should plead ignorance, his claim would be none the more valid. Indeed, his ignorance might arise from inexcusable carelessness, etc." What! in order to legitimate dispossession through prescription, you suppose faults in the proprietor!
He looked at her, steadily, gloomily, ashamed of what she had made him say, yet too sunken in his own pain, too indifferent to hers, to unsay it.

With horrid sickness of heart she made a feint that hid her knowledge.
They had been living in continual fear of dispossession since the first attack on the Breckenridge farm in '69.

None were more pleased at this turn of affairs than the widow Harding and Enoch.
She had been a fitting center to it all; though the center, for Jack, was Valerie, exquisite, mildly radiant, not a hint on her of dispossession or of doom; but Imogen, white and rapt and grave, had looked almost as wonderful as on the day when she had first dawned upon Sir Basil's vision.
When they returned, they had found their pots and brushes in the road, and an intimation from the windows that their reentrance would be forcibly resisted as a trespass. I honestly believe that Rutli was more concerned than myself over this dispossession.
The Romish priests, not content with the restoration of the infamous hospital for abducting Protestant children at Pinerolo, and other grants made by the French, actually set up a claim for income which had accrued during the period of their dispossession.
