VIOLATION1. An act done unlawfully and with force. In the English stat. of 25 E. III., st. 5, c. 2, it is declared to be high treason in any person who shall violate the king's companion; and it is equally high treason in her to suffer willingly such violation.

When an article is merely snatched, as by a sudden pull, even though a momentary8 force be exerted, it is not such violence as to constitute a robbery. 2 East, P. C. 702; 2 Russ.

Cr. Law, *244. The words " feloniously and against the will," usually introduced in such indictments13, seem to be sufficient. It is usual also to aver14 a putting in fear, though this does not seem to be requisite. Id.
