  1. hobble chain
    • 1923, George Washington Ogden, “Chapter 2”, in The Baron of Diamond Tail:
      Along this unequal way, where loafers sat on whittled benches, lounged in doorways, leaned against porch props, Dan Gustin went pegging in his high-heeled boots like a mule in a Mexican chain hobble, holding a straight course for the hotel, past the doors of temptation.
