kipple

• Maybe a life quest for satisfaction and happiness, instead of accumulating debt, kipple and assets, can be given a new name, one not so stained and tainted as The American Dream. —  YOUR NEW REALITY
• If ever a young kipple in the middlin classes began life with a chance of happiness, it was Mr. and Mrs. Frederic Altamont. —  The Memoirs of Mr. Charles J. Yellowplush
• No doubt, as soon as they had made out our tracks again, they sent a kipple of men off to fetch them back, but I reckon they wouldn't have seen them till they got four or five miles down, and by that time the other bands would have been as much farther up the side-valleys, and the messengers would have a long ride before they overtook them -- ten or twelve miles, maybe -- and they would have all that to come down again, so they would be pretty well four hours before they had joined the first band, and in four hours it will be dark enough for Dave to draw off.
