1685 Bp. S. Parker Relig. & Loyalty: 2nd Pt. 506 Well fare our secret Historian for a lucky Fool-finder.

1887 Dakota Huronite (Huron, Dakota Territory) 21 Apr. 2/1 The famous Boston female confidence banker..has again skipped out, leaving depositors to mourn her cheeky performances to the tune of $50,000. As a rascaless she is a brilliant success, and equally so as a fool finder.

1918 A. E. T. Watson Sporting & Dramatic Career 325 Some one asked me if I minded telling him what I had paid, and on my naming the figure he drily replied, ‘Yes, they call Reggie the fool-finder’.

1962 Kenosha (Wisconsin) News 2 June 4/3 I got a confidential survey through the mail which asks some odd questions... This is no fool finder. Just poorly contrived research.

†2. slang. A bailiff. Obsolete.
