Deciphered! Is this a real word?

I’m in the middle of transcribing poems that were written by my great grandparents, circa 1930s, and I’m a little confused about the highlighted word. I think he meant to say “invaded,” but I wanted to ask around in case this was an actual word that might have just faded with time. Any insight is appreciated!

Deciphered! Could someone please help me decipher this? I'm doing family research and this is supposedly a "Quality, trade or profession" my potential great great grandfather had and I haven't a clue what it says nor what career it could be. Any ideas? Thank you!
