		SAM HILL - "If someone could locate any historical record of a Col. Samuel Hill of Guilford, Connecticut, we might find the origin of the phrase 'go like Sam Hill' or 'run like Sam Hill.' Edwin V. Mitchell makes mention of the man in the 'Encyclopedia of American Politics (1946).

	The Straight Dope: What's the origin of Uncle Sam?
		Hill, no. Sam Hill is just a soundalike euphemism for "hell" once used by macho American frontiersmen in the presence of women, children, and other sensitive souls.
		A widely held belief, reported as fact in supposedly reliable reference books, is that the original Uncle Sam was one Sam Wilson, a meat packer in Troy, New York, who supplied rations to the U.S. military during the War of 1812.
		This suggests Uncle Sam was dreamed up by critics of the government who simply wanted to personify the object of their scorn.

	Sam Hill, Fundamentalism in Recent Southern Culture. Response for Journal of Southern Religion by Joel Martin
		And, on the other score, even as Hill suggests that fundamentalism "has wrought more changes" than the civil rights movement, he adds the major disclaimer: "along some lines at any rate." This is the historiographical equivalent of "results may vary" and "void where prohibited." Hill knows that the civil rights movement transformed everything.
		Hill avoids saying it is. Nor does he celebrate the disappearance of Southern distinctiveness.
		Perhaps Sam Hill has authored a gentle jeremiad that calls Southern white Christians to reimagine their Southernness and their faith in non-exclusivistic ways appropriate for and supportive of a pluralistic democracy.

		Despite the story [about a Connecticut politician named Sam Hill], it seems to be no more than a personalised euphemism for “hell”.” (www.worldwidewords.org/qa…).
