Shaker \Shak"er\, n.
1. A person or thing that shakes, or by means of which
something is shaken.
[1913 Webster]

2. One of a religious sect who do not marry, popularly so
called from the movements of the members in dancing, which
forms a part of their worship.
[1913 Webster]

Note: The sect originated in England in 1747, and came to the
United States in 1774, under the leadership of Mother
Ann Lee. The Shakers are sometimes nicknamed Shaking
Quakers, but they differ from the Quakers in doctrine
and practice. They style themselves the "United Society
of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing." The sect is
now confined in the United States.
[1913 Webster]

3. (Zool.) A variety of pigeon. --P. J. Selby.
[1913 Webster]
