twelve inches long, is light purpiish

of robbing the farmers corn crib, of

are following into the past for light on
origins is that which has the word

thority on evolution of English speech,
Professor Lounsbury, could find no ear
Ter use of the term as applied to the
chief writer and director of a period
lea than in 1768, but there is evidence
In the superb collection Of British and
American newspapers owned by the
Antiquarian society, Worcester, Mass,
that 1t was so used in 1861. The al
legged use Of the title in the Boston
Newsletter Of 1928 proves, on exami-
nation of the file in the Boston public
library, to be inaccurate. Undoubtedly
Isaiah Thomas, in 1873, spoke of him
