Sam Hide is a historic or apocryphal character in the folklore of New England, United States, used in the folk saying "to lie like Sam Hide". There is no record of the death of a Sam Hide in the records of Dedham, Massachusetts though he is said to have died in 1732; however, Sam Hide is noted at age 105 at Dedham as being a sachem, chief or sagamore who first and last were, to a greater or less degree, land-holders, and leaders of the multifarious tribes of New England.
