-
One whose office is to beat the drum in military exercises and marching: one who drums: one who solicits custom: a name given in the West Indies to the Blatta gigantea, an insect which, in old frame and deal houses, has the power of making a noise at night, by knocking its head against the wood. The sound very much resembles a pretty smart knocking with the knuckle upon the wainscoting.
