What were 'skedaddlers' in the nineteenth century?

Jeeves

The concept of dodging the draft began with the Civil War in the 1860s. In fact, there is a place in New Brunswick in the Mapleton District in Carleton county referred to as Skedaddle Ridge. It was a place where many Americans had settled after skedaddling across the border from Maine to escape having to fight in the war.
