Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary
|
It is not only important, but, in a degree necessary, that the people of this country, should have an American Dictionary of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England, and it is desirable to perpetuate that sameness, yet some differences must exist. Language is the expression of ideas; and if the people of one country cannot preserve an identity of ideas, they cannot retain an identity of language. |

1913 Definition
The act of discontinuing, or the state of
being discontinued; want of continued connection or continuity;
breaking off; cessation; interruption; as, a discontinuance of
conversation or intercourse; discontinuance of a highway or of
travel.
A
breaking off or interruption of an estate, which happened when an
alienation was made by a tenant in tail, or other tenant, seized in
