It's no coincidence that only in unpublished sources do you find certain 
English-derived Jargon terms, like "shit lamachin" for a laxative, which is 
in Father Edward Griva's manuscript dictionary.

  But such words appear also in Demers/Blanchet/StOnge (http://www.canadiana.org/ECO/mtq?doc=04222) on page 19:
  Shit, excrement, manure,
  Shit inpu, nit
  Shit hows, water closet
  Shit lametsin, aperient (the same as Griva's "shit lamachin")
  
I apologize for quoting such words, but this is language too
