What “Hutaree” Means…

From Sipsey Street Irregulars:

Everybody has been asking, in one form or the other, “What does ‘Hutaree’ mean?” And is it “Who-tar-eee” or “Hut-tar-ee”? The correct pronunciation seems to be “Who-tar-eee,” but I had to turn to CPT R.A. Bear, the S-2 of the formidable and legendary Dogtown Rangers for an explanation of the meaning of the word.

Young CPT Bear was understanding. “I’m not surprised you don’t know, hardly anybody does.”

“Well?”

“‘Hutaree’ is a Shawnee word meaning ‘stupid white man.'”
