It was simply in fact and effect a primeval prototype of the "puggaree" of Margate and Hindustan.
Strefford aimed his cigarette-end at a tourist on a puggaree who was gazing up from his guidebook at the palace.
He is a bony, lantern-jawed young man, in velveteen jacket, with a puggaree round his hat.
Yes, I know that, sir; but your puggaree would have been better, only you lost that along with your cap.
He took the puggaree from his hat, and, tying the ends together, he slung it over her front pommel.
