258. Oath Fellows?

“a combination of a Flemish and a German word. In the Flemish corner of France, Bible students who gathered in each other's houses to study secretly were called 'house fellows,' while on the Swiss and German borders they were termed 'oath fellows,' that is, persons bound to each other by an oath. Gallicized into X, often used disparingly, the word became, during two and a half centuries of terror and triumph, a badge of enduring honor and courage”.
