This part of Hants may be deemed to Nova Scotia what Kent is to England: "a regular Kentycooker," is a term used to express a native Nova-Scotian of the true breed; a being raw-boned, gaunt, keen-eyed, and lantern jawed; greatly resembling . . . his own half-savage hog, and obstinate withal as the same animal, if you attempt to drive him in any direction.
