   Belonging to a close or termination; decisive; convincing;

         were for them.                           --Rogers.
   [1913 Webster]

   {Conclusive evidence} (Law), that of which, from its nature,
      the law allows no contradiction or explanation.

   {Conclusive presumption} (Law), an inference which the law
      makes so peremptorily that it will not allow it to be
      overthrown by any contrary proof, however strong.

   Syn: Final; ultimate; unanswerable. See {Final}.
        [1913 Webster]
    
from Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
CONCLUSIVE. What puts an end to a thing. A conclusive presumption of law, is 
one which cannot be contradicted even by direct and positive proof. Take, 
for example, the presumption that an infant is incapable of judging whether 
it is or is not against his interest; When infancy is pleaded and proved, 
the plaintiff cannot show that the defendant was within one day of being of 
age when the contract was made, and perfectly competent to make a contract.
