4. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
THREAT, crim. law. A menace of destruction or injury to the lives or 
property of those against whom it is made. 
     2. Sending threatening letters to persons for the purpose of extorting 
money, is said to, be a misdemeanor at common law. Hawk. B. 1, c. 53, s. 1; 
2 Russ. on Cr. 575; 2 Chit. Cr. L. 841; 4 Bl. Com. l26. To be indictable, 
the threat must be of a nature calculated to overcome a firm and prudent 
man. The party who makes a threat may be held to bail for his good 
behaviour. Vide Com. Dig. Battery, D;  13 Vin. Ab. 357. 



5. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
THREAT, evidence. Menace. 
     2. When a confession is obtained from a person accused of crime, in 
consequence of a threat, evidence of such confession cannot be received, 
because, being obtained by the torture of fear, it comes in so questionable 
a shape, that no credit ought to be given to it; 1 Leach, 263; this is the 
general principle, but what amounts to a threat is not so easily defined. It 
is proper to observe, however, that the threat must be made by a person 
having authority over the prisoner, or by another in the presence of such 
authorized person, and not dissented from by the latter. 8 C. & P. 733. Vide 
Confession, and the cases there cited.
