Sh-T sack.  A dastardly fellow:  also a non-conformist. 
  This appellation is said to have originated from the
  following story:—­After the restoration, the laws against
  the non-conformists were extremely severe.  They
  sometimes met in very obscure places:  and there is a tradition
  that one of their congregations were assembled in a barn,
  the rendezvous of beggars and other vagrants, where the
  preacher, for want of a ladder or tub, was suspended in
  a sack fixed to the beam.  His discourse that day being
  on the last judgment, he particularly attempted to describe
  the terrors of the wicked at the sounding of the trumpet,
  on which a trumpeter to a puppet-show, who had taken
  refuge in that barn, and lay hid under the straw, sounded
  a charge.  The congregation, struck with the utmost
  consternation, fled in an instant from the place, leaving
  their affrighted teacher to shift for himself.  The effects
  of his terror are said to have appeared at the bottom of
  the sack, and to have occasioned that opprobrious appellation
  by which the non-conformists were vulgarly distinguished.
