   Debenture \De*ben"ture\, n.

      evidences of debt. Such instruments (often called
  
      {debenture bonds}) are generally, through not necessarily,
            under seal, and are usually secured by a mortgage or other
            charge upon property; they may be registered or
            unregistered. A debenture secured by a mortgage on
            specific property is called a

            see), a
  
      {floating debenture}; one not secured by any charge

            United States commonly called {bonds}. When used in the
            United States debenture generally designates an instrument
            secured by a floating charge junior to other charges
            secured by fixed mortgages, or, specif., one of a series
            of securities secured by a group of securities held in
            trust for the benefit of the debenture holders.

      Syn: To entertain; gratify; please; divert; beguile; deceive;
               occupy.
  
      Usage: To {Amuse}, {Divert}, {Entertain}. We are amused by

                  entertained by that which brings our minds into
                  agreeable contact with others, as conversation, or a
                  book. We are diverted by that which turns off our
                  thoughts to something of livelier interest, especially
                  of a sportive nature, as a humorous story, or a
                  laughable incident.
  
                           Whatever amuses serves to kill time, to lull the
                           faculties, and to banish reflection. Whatever
                           entertains usually awakens the understanding or
                           gratifies the fancy. Whatever diverts is lively
                           in its nature, and sometimes tumultuous in its
