CIDE DICTIONARY

removev. t. [OF. removoir, remouvoir, L. removere, remotum; pref. re- re- + movere to move. See Move.].
  •  To move away from the position occupied; to cause to change place; to displace; as, to remove a building.  [1913 Webster]
    "Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor's landmark."  [1913 Webster]
    "When we had dined, to prevent the ladies' leaving us, I generally ordered the table to be removed."  [1913 Webster]
  •  To cause to leave a person or thing; to cause to cease to be; to take away; hence, to banish; to destroy; to put an end to; to kill; as, to remove a disease.  Shak.  [1913 Webster]
  •  To dismiss or discharge from office; as, the President removed many postmasters.  [1913 Webster]
    " See the Note under Remove, v. i."  [1913 Webster]
removev. i. 
     To change place in any manner, or to make a change in place; to move or go from one residence, position, or place to another.  [1913 Webster]
    " The verb remove, in some of its application, is synonymous with move, but not in all. Thus we do not apply remove to a mere change of posture, without a change of place or the seat of a thing. A man moves his head when he turns it, or his finger when he bends it, but he does not remove it. Remove usually or always denotes a change of place in a body, but we never apply it to a regular, continued course or motion. We never say the wind or water, or a ship, removes at a certain rate by the hour; but we say a ship was removed from one place in a harbor to another. Move is a generic term, including the sense of remove, which is more generally applied to a change from one station or permanent position, stand, or seat, to another station."  [1913 Webster]
    "Till Birnam wood remove to Dunsinane,
    I can not taint with fear.
    "  [1913 Webster]
removen. 
  •  The act of removing; a removal.  [1913 Webster]
    "This place should be at once both school and university, not needing a remove to any other house of scholarship."  [1913 Webster]
    "And drags at each remove a lengthening chain."  [1913 Webster]
  •  The transfer of one's business, or of one's domestic belongings, from one location or dwelling house to another; -- in the United States usually called a move.  [1913 Webster]
    "It is an English proverb that three removes are as bad as a fire."  [1913 Webster]
  •  The state of being removed.  Locke.  [1913 Webster]
  •  That which is removed, as a dish removed from table to make room for something else.  [1913 Webster]
  •  The distance or space through which anything is removed; interval; distance; stage; hence, a step or degree in any scale of gradation; specifically, a division in an English public school; as, the boy went up two removes last year.  [1913 Webster]
    "A freeholder is but one remove from a legislator."  [1913 Webster]
  •  The act of resetting a horse's shoe.  Swift.  [1913 Webster]
