"Of course, the Treasury took up the case and subpoenaed Mr. Morton as a witness, so that gentleman if he wished to hush the matter up, or had been in any way terrorised into a promise of doing so gained nothing by his refusal, except an additional amount of curiosity in the public mind and further sensation around the mysterious case.
These men were persuaded or terrorised by the fighting commandos into breaking their parole and abandoning those farms on which they had sworn to remain. The farmhouses were their bail, and Lord Roberts decreed that it was forfeited.
"Well, fifteen years or so ago, there was a gang of housebreakers and burglars that got on people's nerves. They pulled off many a robbery, beat up a number of people, and had the whole district terrorised. The police didn't seem able to get on to any good clues, though goodness knows they worked hard.
Few of the assailants escaped every avenue was guarded by mounted policemen; and the gang which had long terrorised the neighbourhood whose teachings and example had done so much to convert the sullen discontent of the peasantry into overt violence was effectually broken up. From that night the boycott on the Connolly household was raised.
And some of these shapes were precisely those from which our good principal may well have first drawn his liveliest reassurance: I seem to remember such ancient American virgins in especial and such odd and either distinctively long-necked or more particularly long-haired and chinless compatriots, in black frock-coats of no type or "cut," no suggested application at all as garments application, that is, to anything in the nature of character or circumstance, function or position gathered about in the groups that M.

He could not believe Kaspar's narrative, but still hoped that he had been terrorised into falsehood.
But Hamilton, before the arrangement came to a head, was terrorised, and the intentions of the Cameronians, as far as their records prove, had never been officially ratified by their leaders. There was plenty of popular rioting during the session, but Argyll rode into Edinburgh at the head of the Horse Guards, and Leven held all the gates with drafts from the garrison of the castle.
He also enters con amore into the details of raising a Napoleonic army, and of establishing the system of the Landwehr in France. A very remarkable passage in this manifesto is that on the Press; by which, he says, the Government is terrorised.
Hill told us that Birchill terrorised him into drawing this plan by threats of exposure. Exposure of what? His master, Sir Horace Fewbanks, knew he had been in gaol, so what had he to fear from exposure? His proper course, if he were an honest man, would have been to tell his master that Birchill was planning to rob the house and had endeavoured to draw him into the crime.
