The troops were required to keep four days' rations cooked on hand all the time. Of the meal we made "cart wheels," "dog heads," "ash cakes," and last, but not least, we had "cush." Now corn bread is not a very great delicacy at best, but when four days' old, and green with mold, it is anything but palatable. But the soldiers got around this in the way "cush" was manipulated.
To this I have already replied, that the curse was pronounced not on Cush, but on Canaan his brother, and it is arguing in a circle to extend the subject. After all, we are not sure that Central Africa, and the western coast, the theatre of the principal trade, was peopled from Ethiopia. Where is the proof?
It was in front of Burket's coal-yard on Ella Street, back in dear old Beatrice, at some unchristian hour of the night. "After he had relieved me of a dollar and forty cents he remarked: 'I gotta good mind to kick yer slats in fer not havin' more of de cush on yeh; but I'm feelin' so good about de last guy I stuck up I'll let youse off dis time."
He settled in the land upon Lebanon, eastward and westward from the border of the Jordan and the border of the sea. And Ham, his father, and his brothers Cush and Mizraim spoke to him, and said: "Thou livest in a land that is not thine, for it was not assigned unto us when the lots were drawn. Do not thus!
The same region is now Beloochistan, the country of the Belooches or Belus, while adjoining it on the east is Cutch, or Kooch, a term standing to Cush is Belooch stands to Belus. Again, Cissia or Cossaea is now Khuzistan, or the land of Khuz a name not very remote from Cush; but perhaps this is only a coincidence.
The begetting of Nimrod, is accounted a thing that is over and above, and is laid by the Holy Ghost as a blot upon Cush for ever; for when men would vilify, they used to say, Thou art the son of the rebellious, the son of a murderer. "Cush begat Nimrod." So then, the curse came betimes upon the sons of Ham; for he was the father of Cush.
Make a clear report of my words to the king my lord, that I am the vassal of the king. Abundance of good fortune to thee! And thou hast performed deeds I cannot enumerate against the men of the land of Cush. ... bana is not slain. There are Babylonians in my house. Let the king my lord ask in regard to them..."
"We must take this cow home first," said Harry, with a farmer's instinct. "Where do you suppose she belongs?" "We might try that house first," suggested Bert, pointing to a cottage with a small barn, a little way from the wood. "Come, Cush," said Harry, to the strange cow, and the animal obediently walked along.
This pearl-fishery belongs to the King of the country, but is controlled by a Jewish official. Thence it is seven days' journey to Khulam which is the beginning of the country of the Sun-worshippers . These are the sons of Cush, who read the stars, and are all black in colour. They are honest in commerce.
This we are told in Genesis. The earliest chiefs to build cities in Shinar are there personified in the person of Nimrod, who is the son of Cush, and the grandson of Ham. He and his people must be placed, therefore, in the same family as the Ethiopians, the Egyptians, and the Libyans, the Canaanites and the Phoenicians.
