Gammerstang commented on the word about East
(adjective) - In a proper manner. This curious slang expression originated in the West among New Englanders emigrated from the East. With them, naturally, all that is done in their native land is right, and hence, what they admire they simply call about East. --Sylva Clapin's Dictionary of Americanisms, 1902
