have-notn.

have-not (n.)"poor person," 1742, from have + not. Have in the sense of "one who \\'has,\\' one of the wealthier class of persons" is from the same source. Earliest in translation of "Don Quixote: \\'There are but two families in the world, as my grandmother used to say; "the Have\\'s and the Have-not\\'s," and she stuck to the former; and now-a-days, master Don Quixote, people are more inclined to feel the pulse of Have than of Know.\\' ["Don Quixote de la Mancha," transl. Charles Jarvis, London, 1742]
