  INQUEST. A body of men appointed by law to inquire into certain matters; as, 
  the inquest examined into the facts connected with the alleged murder; the 
  grand jury, is sometimes called the grand inquest. The judicial inquiry 
  itself is also called an inquest. The finding of such men, upon an 
  investigation, is also called an inquest or an inquisition. 
       2. An inquest of office was bound to find for the king upon the 
  direction of the court. The reason given is that the inquest concluded no 
  man of his right, but only gave the king an opportunity to enter so that he 
  could have his right tried. Moore, 730; Vaughan, 135; 3 H. VII. 10; 2 H. IV. 
  5; 3 Leon. 196.
