More About "Hoosier<."

To the Editor OF tho indianapolis journal:
Permit me to give my version of the orr.
gin OF the word "Hoosicr." in answer to the
i~nterrogatory of w. b. G.. III the Journal
OF recent date. During the opening of the
Louisville and Portland canal by the gen.
eral government there were Kentuck-
ians. lndianians and many from the
Green isle" who worked on the ca
nal. Drinking and fighting. especially
on Saturdays, were very common.
Men used no weapons then. and the man
who would even attempt TO draw a weapon
was branded as u coward. There were
three brothers from Indiana. named Short.
who were giants in strength. The hero of
our story was named Aaron, six feet toll,
weight two hundred pounds, with no sur
plus flesh: "a perfect sullivan. an athlete.
and. as there were DO Queenspury rules
by which they were governed in lighting.
he was protected below the pit of the
stomach with a heavy leather girdle,
which he wore under his clothes.
One Saturday afternoon there seemed to be
n general engagement all along the line.
The hero of our story was attracted by q
large ring formed around some combatants.
among whom were some OF his friends.
When he attempted To force his way into
the ring the men were So densely packed
that he could not enter. Bv the assistance
of some friends on the outside OF the
ring he was raised to the shoulders
of the crowd and crawled over and
jumped down among the eombarants. He
had not much more than Strengthened
himself up before he met an antagonist
worthy of his steel. Suffice 1t To say that
before he put on his coat. he bad whipped
five men. and jumped up and cracked his
feet together three times and swore that he
was n "husher." This same Short, while
on a visit in Morgan county to see his
relatives. sent word to Jake Psyton that
he would be In Mooresville on a certain
Gay. but Mr.. Payton did not come.
Jumping and hopping were very common
in that day. Mr.. short could Jump on a
level thlrty-six feet at three jumps. and
turn around and jump back To the place of
beginning. These are substantially tile
facts about the origin of "Hoosier." or
"Husher." The Cincinnati papers dis
