- A name by which the sails hanging from the lower yards of a ship are usually distinguished, viz. the main-sail, fore-sail, and mizen: the staysails upon the lower masts are sometimes also comprehended in this denomination, as are the main staysails of all brigs and schooners. a ship is under her courses when she has no sail set but the fore-sail, main-sail, and mizen. trysails are courses (which see), sometimes termed bentincks.
- The name for sails suspended on the lowermost yards of a fully square-rigged ship (thus maincourse, fore-course, and mizzen-course). a trysail is also a course when used in place of one of these sails during a storm. the term was sometimes extended to include the main staysails of brigs and schooners. a ship driven by one or more of these with no other sails set used to be called “under courses” but the term is now seldom used. court-martial: one of three levels of trial held under naval or military law. the lowest level is termed “summary” and deals with relatively minor misdeeds; an intermediate level is called “special”; and the highest, covering serious misdemeanors up to and including capital offenses, is a “general court martial.”
