Article 187 - Private
The most common name for the secretive and special form of “private” right is called a “Letter of Marque, falsely claimed as originating from 4 Hen. 5. c.7 in 1416, but more accurately originating from the statute 6 Ann. c. 37 in 1707 and the “encouragement of trade to America”. One who holds or possesses a Letter of Marque is normally termed a Privateer and one who acts in such a manner without a proper Letter of Marque is properly called a Pirate.
The word private is derived from the 16th Century conjoining of the Latin words privo meaning “to deprive, rob, steal, take away” and – atus being a Latin suffix equivalent to – ed in English. Hence the literal and original etymology of private is “legal deprivation, robbing, stealing or seizure”.
The word "Private" is one (1) of several words created and introduced in various complex works of fraudulent history introduced during the 16th Century by the Jesuit Order. Their first reference to "Private" was in "Corpus Iuris Civilis" published by Jesuit of the short robe (secret Jesuit) Denis Godefroy in 1583, which claimed 6th Century Byzantine jurists considered certain law from the perspective of “public” or “Private”.
