slops

Back in the 18th century, overalls were known as “slops,” and carried a semi-criminal stigma.

"It's awful the way I inhale," said Slops with a melancholy sigh.

"Make the signal," said Slops, sheltering himself behind Stover.

But that's probably because they get the slops from the kitchen, and the soap-suds, every wash-day.

A window was suddenly opened, and a pailful of slops splashed down upon the doorstep.

God send thee to cram thy slops with French crowns, and thy enemies bellies with bullets.
