Default [Dixonary] ROUND 2939 - SPUTCHEON - VOTE NOW!

Here are 14 definitions for the word SPUTCHEON...but only one is correct. Please send your votes (by responding to this email) for what you believe are two definitions most likely to have come from a dictionary. The deadline for voting is Saturday, November 17th, at 9a.m. As usual, I will let you determine the time in your time zone. :-)

Any misspellings, weird spacing, etc., are my fault and not an indication of the accuracy of a particular definition.

Good luck!

1. One who is easily duped.
2. [Printing] a font or cut used for Greeking.
3. An engagement party.
4. A component of plate armor to protect the knee.
5. Cotton or wool in sheets.
6. Metal lining of the mouth of a scabbard.
