What is...
Donna and other fashionistas here may be able to answer this: One of my volunteers at the Surratt House ran across the term (ca. 1845) "bonnet assassin." We figure that it would translate to "killer bonnet (or hat)" in today's slang. Any idea what it would have looked like? Have you ever seen the term in books?
