Ignoramus

Lat. “Weare ignorant;” “We ignore it.” Formerly the grand jury used to write this word on bills of indictment when, after having heard the evidence, they thought the accusation against the prisoner was groundless, intimating that, though the facts might possibly be true, the truth did not appear to them; but now they usually write in English the words “ Not a true bill,” or “Not found,” if that is their verdict; but they are still said toignore thebill.
