Note
One spelling does double duty: it stands alone as the simple past, and it joins have or be in perfect and passive constructions. The passive suits the legal meaning especially well, as when a property is conveyed to a buyer. In older writing it can also mean carried off in secret or stolen, a sense now obsolete. A person 'conveyed away' there may have been smuggled off rather than escorted.
