"Huckle Bearer" is a nonsense phrase invented by nincompoops on the internet who didn't understand what Doc Holiday was saying in "Tombstone" when he said "I'm your huckleberry". It comes with a made-up "explanation" that in the mythic Old South, handles on coffins were called "huckles" (they were not), qnd this pall bearers weere called "huckle bearers" (they were not). The idea is as stupid as it is false, and it is entirely false. The term "huckle bearer" was created ex nihilo shortly after the release of "Tombstone" in 1993, and has no history prior to that at all.
