noise abroad

noise abroad
1) делать достоянием гласности; распространять (особ. слухи) [этим. библ. Luke I, 65]

The most searching and elaborate mathematical examinations were conducted with a view to showing the fabulous profits of the street-car trust in future years. The fine hand of Eastern banking-houses was detected and their sinister motives noised abroad. (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Titan’, ch. LXI) — Газеты производили доскональнейшие математические выкладки, дабы наглядно показать населению, какие баснословные барыши ожидают в недалеком будущем объединение городских железных дорог. Они увидели в этом руку финансистов Восточных штатов и разоблачали их черные махинации.

2) стать широко известным

He... had been the first white man to taste the medicinal waters of Saratoga Springs, the fame of which had since been noised abroad... (V. W. Brooks, ‘The World of Washington Irving’, ch. II) — Сэр Уильям Джонсон... был первым белым человеком, которому довелось испить целебной воды в городе Саратога-Спрингс; а с тех пор слава об этих источниках широко распространилась.
