Cashiering
Cashiering (or
degradation ceremony) generally within
military forces is a
ritual dismissal of an individual from some position of responsibility for a breach of
discipline. From the Flemish 'Kasseren' the phrase entered the English language in the late 16th century, during the wars in the
Low Countries, although the
O.E.D. states that the first printed use in this sense appears in
Shakespeare's
Othello (1603) it appeared in the 1595 tract The Estate of English Fugitives by
Lewes Lewkenor, 'imploring his help and assistance in so hard an extremity, who for recompence, very charitably cashierd them all without the receipt of one penny.'
