a solemn publication or promulgation of any thing.

All vessels of enemies are lawful prizes, after denunciation or proclamation of war. The design of the denunciation of excommunicated persons, is that the sentence may be the more fully executed by the person's being more known.

DENUNCIATION at the horn, in Scots law, is that form by which a debtor, after the expiry of a charge to make payment upon letters of horning, is denounced rebel to the king for disobedience. No caption for apprehending and imprisoning the debtor can be obtained upon an expired charge of horning till he is first denounced rebel, and the horning with the executions of charge and denunciation registered. As to the other legal effects of denunciation, see SCOTS LAW, title 12.
