Errant :: Errant (a.) Journeying; itinerant; -- formerly applied to judges who went on circuit and to bailiffs at large.

Henry :: Henry (n.) The unit of electric induction; the induction in a circuit when the electro-motive force induced in this circuit is one volt, while the inducing current varies at the rate of one ampere a second..
