Got a chew?

My Grandfather, Ed Eury, used to tell about a character named Buck Newton who he often saw walking the roads around Mount Gilead. Once Buck flagged a train down. When the engineer stuck his head out of the cab and asked Buck why he had stopped the train, Buck asked, "You got a chew of tobacco?"
The engineer said that he didn't chew tobacco.
"How come you to stop then?" asked Buck.
