3. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Boar
   occurs only in Ps. 80:13. The same Hebrew word is elsewhere
   rendered "swine" (Lev. 11:7; Deut. 14:8; Prov. 11:22; Isa. 65:4;
   66:3, 17). The Hebrews abhorred swine's flesh, and accordingly
   none of these animals were reared, except in the district beyond
   the Sea of Galilee. In the psalm quoted above the powers that
   destroyed the Jewish nation are compared to wild boars and wild
   beasts of the field.
   

4. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
BOARD. This word is used to designate all the magistrates of a city or 
borough, or all the managers or directors of any institution; as, the board 
of aldermen; the board of directors of the Bank of North America. The 
majority of the board have in general the power to perform the acts of the 
whole board, but sometimes they are restrained by their charters, and it 
requires a greater number to perform certain acts.
