From Wikki
An Adventure (from Latin res adventura, a thing about to happen) is a wild and exciting undertaking, especially where there is a chance of danger. There is often the hope of a favorable outcome.
The word is also used in certain restricted legal connections. Joint adventure, for instance, may be distinguished from partnership. A bill of adventure in maritime law (now apparently obsolete) is a writing signed by the shipmaster declaring that goods shipped in his name really belong to another, to whom he is responsible. The bill of gross adventure in French maritime law is an instrument making a loan on maritime security.
In Anglo-Irish history, the Adventurers Act passed by the English Parliament in 1643 decreed that that loans given to the Parliamentarians during the Civil Wars could be recouped by the creditors receiving land confiscated from Irish Catholics. See Plantations of Ireland and various Acts of Settlement.
