bird we call the jayhawk; it worries
its prey before 'devouring It; and jay
hawking issa good name for the bust
ness I've been IN. . This is the only
known origin OF the word. Colonel

Jennison, one of the Free State lead
ers, claiming that he coined" ii. Jay
hawking was the term used to de-
scribe the depredations of the Kansans
and they were called "Jayhawkers." as
the term Border Ruffians" was applied
to The Missouri pro-slavery men.
