5. (American.)—A man who ejects; a ‘chucker-out’ (q.v.).

1883. Daily News, July 26, p. 4, col. 8. The other fresh American

type is less remarkable—the bouncer. One might suppose that a

bouncer was a noisy braggart; but no. A scientific writer in the

Nation describes a bouncer as a ‘silent, strong man.’ Every one who

mixes much in society in Whitechapel will understand the functions

of the bouncer when we explain that he is merely the English

‘chucker-out.’

6. (harlotry.)—A prostitute’s companion; ponce; bully. For synonyms,

see Ponce.
