Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 9: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc.; January June, 1890
The subject, no doubt, is not specially attractive but still the word is there, With what standard value a place in The Borderers' can give it, and there is no reason why earlier usage should not be put in evidence, if possible, so that thereby the minds of lexicographers may be set at their ease. Thomas bayne.
