Tho Mord .Chap.n

"Chap" is simply an abbreviation OF
chapman, the merchant Of former days.
and is derived from the Anglo-Saxon
"ceap," a bargain. The word almost
brings before US the loud voiced
cheap Jack" as he cries his wares in
the cheaping or market. Chap seems
to have come into common use at the
end Of the sixteenth century and is
rarely mentioned In books before 100.
Johnson does not recognize it, though
Steele uses it in 1712 in the Spectator
eff you want to sell, here is your
chap'), and it is found in Bailey's Die
donary, 1871. Its original meaning OF
q buyer or seller still fingers in the

with the adjectives old, young, little,
poor, it was and Is used in familiar
language, as is its relative, a queer
