"The Legend of Sleepy Hollow found among the papers of the late Diedrich Knickerbocker"
"...It is said by some to be the ghost of a Hessian trooper, whose head had been carried away by a cannonball, in some nameless battle during the Revolutionary War, and who is ever and anon seen by the country folk, hurrying along in the gloom of night."

Thankyou for following my blog - and you might like, i you haven't read it already, 'The Mist in the Mirror'; by Susan Hill. Check it out on Amazon. It's creepy (a ghost story with a difference) but so beautifully written, and somehow epitomises Englishness. (For I see you enjoy P&P). I'll catch up on the rest of your blog as soon as I have a spare moment. A.
