ΚΠ
1861 Dawson's Fort Wayne (Indiana) Daily Times 6 Mar. 1/4 One of the greatest curiosities is the pegging machine, which inserts the awl, cuts out the pegs from a strip of wood, and drives them in, all at one operation, and so rapidly that it will peg two rows around the sole of a shoe in 20 seconds.
1897 Atlantic Monthly Aug. 177/2 ‘I'll bet anything they's one thing they can't never make, with all their inventin', an' that's a machine to peg shoes with.’ This, from a shoemaker, nearly a generation after the pegging-machine had come into general use.
1999 Early Amer. Homes (Nexis) 1 Apr. 54 By 1833 Samuel Preston..had invented a pegging machine, but shoemaking did not become an industrial operation until the development of a heavy-duty stitching machine in 1864.
