Hands a part of the bat - history?

Since I have been given some great history lessons here, I thought I'd ask a question that has been slightly bugging me for years. I know the hands are not an extension of the bat, though I have heard that growing up and recently, sadly, by fellow broadcasters. How did that idea get started? Were the hands ever an extension of the bat in the ancient rulebooks?
