Incaustum

or ENCAUSTUM (Lat.) Ink; a fluid anciently used for writing, of which, as appears from the following passage of Bracton, there were two kinds, — the black (incaustum nigrum), and the red (incaustum rubrum), the former being also termed atravientum (from ater, black), which is the Latin word generally used for "ink." Item diversitas incausti et atramenti, ut si una pars scribatur incausto nigro, et altera pars incausto rubra, non atramento. Bracton, fol. 398b, INCAUTE FACTUM PRO NON FACTO habetur. A thing done unwarily or unadvisedly will be taken as not done. Dig. 28. 4. 1. INCENDIARY (Lat. incendium, a kindling). One who maliciously and willfully sets another person's building on fire; one guilty of the crime of arson. INCENDIUM AERE ALIENO NON exuit debitorum. A fire does not release a debtor from his debt. Code, 4. 2. 11.
