fugitivos/desertores

Consegui achar em um dicionário:

https://www.google.com.br/books/edition/Slang_and_Its_Analog...

De acordo com outro dicionário (Dicionário inglês-português, de Antônio Houaiss), "runaway" pode ser: fugitivo; desertor; cavalo desembestado; fuga (esp. de noivos para casar); fugitivo; fujão; descontrolado (mecanismo).

O que está escrito em: "A Dictionary, Historical and Comparative, of the Heterodox Speech of All Classes of Society for More Than Three Hundred Years. With Synonyms in English, French, German, Italian, Etc · Volume 2":

Elbower: [subs] (American thieves) — A runaway
