ref: 1892 May 24, “At the Dry Tortugas During the War”, in The Californian Illustrated Magazine, volume 1, number 6, page 586:
text: Besides this, yellow fever and scarlatina are two of the gravest maladies on the catalogues of the nosologists, and produce, everywhere, a serious mortality when they prevail. But nobody dies of dengue or breakbone; no, not one in one thousand, taken promiscuously, and under all circumstances of discomfort or mal-treatment. As to its relations with malaria and malarious diseases, it suffices to remark that it is not produced, nor has I been known to spread, in the worst malarious localities.

Etymology: From break + bones, calque of Spanish quebrantahuesos.
Senses: examples: text: These southern seas are frequented by several species of Petrels: the largest kind, Procellaria gigantea, or nelly (quebrantahuesos, or break-bones, of the Spaniards), is a common bird, both in the inland channels and on the open sea. In its habits and manner of flight, there is a very close resemblance with the albatross; and as with the albatross, a person may watch it for hours together without seeing on what it feeds. The "break-bones" is, however, a rapacious bird, for it was observed by some of the officers at Port St. Antonio chasing a diver, which tried to escape by diving and flying, but was continually struck down, and at last killed by a blow on its head.
ref: 1839, Charles Darwin, chapter 13, in The Voyage of the Beagle, volume 29, New York: P. F. Collier & Son, published 1909:

ref: 1879, Henry Mottidge Moseley, “Kerguelen's Land”, in Notes by a Naturalist on the Challenger, Cambridge University Press, published 2014, →ISBN, pages 205–206:
text: The titlark, sheath-bill, teal, and goose of South Georgia are wholly or in part vegetable feeders. The cormorant and the tern eat fish. The gull subsists chiefly on limpets and other shell-bearing mollusks. The penguins and Tubinares capture cuttlefish and pelagic crustaceans, the giant petrel, or "breakbones," alone obtaining part of its food on shore, since it has a relish for carrion. The skua feeds on any kind of animal food, dead or alive, especially upon other birds and their eggs.
