Tom Pung. An old name for a cutter; 

 a pung. According to Trumbull (Trans. 

 Am. Philol. Asso., 26, 1872), "a hun- 

 dred years ago a one-horse sleigh, whether 

 a jumper or a cutter, was called in Mas- 

 sachusetts a 'Turn Pung'' — written and 

 pronounced as if the syllables were two 

 independent words." In Dennie's Farm- 

 ers' Museum (243, 1798) a writer repre- 

 sents the town of Roxbury, Mass., as 

 sending to Boston "the gliding Tom Pung 

 and the rattling cart." Turn Pung is the 

 older word of which pung is a reduction. 

 Trumbull, with apparent justification, de- 

 rives Tom Pang from toboggan (q. v.) 

 through folk-etymology. (a. f. c.)
