In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

1828 Definition
NON'SUIT, n. In law, the default, neglect or non-appearance of the plaintiff in a suit, when called in court, by which the plaintiff signifies his intention to drop the suit. Hence a nonsuit amounts to a stoppage of the suit. A nonsuit differs from a retraxit; a nonsuit is the default or neglect of the plaintiff, and after this he may bring another suit for the same cause; but a retraxit is an open positive renunciation of the suit, by which he forever loses his action. [See the Verb.]
NON'SUIT, v.t. To determine or record that the plaintiff drops his suit, on default of appearance when called in court. When a plaintiff being called in court, declines to answer, or when he neglects to deliver his declaration, he is supposed to drop his suit; he is therefore nonsuited, that is, his non-appearance is entered on the record, and this entry amounts to a judgment of the court that the plaintiff has dropped the suit.
NON'SUIT, a. Nonsuited.
1913 Definition
A
neglect or failure by the plaintiff to follow up his suit; a stopping
of the suit; a renunciation or withdrawal of the cause by the
plaintiff, either because he is satisfied that he can not support it,
or upon the judge's expressing his opinion. A compulsory nonsuit is a
nonsuit ordered by the court on the ground that the plaintiff on his
own showing has not made out his case.
To determine, adjudge, or
record (a plaintiff) as having dropped his suit, upon his withdrawal
or failure to follow it up.
"When two are joined in a writ, and
one is nonsuited." Z. Swift. Nonsuited.
