There were many stories in the quiet valley---Sleepy Hollow. But the story that people believed most was about a man who was headless, rode a horse at night. He rode through the valley, looking for his lost head.
As for Katrina, her mother and father gave her a big wedding when she married Brom Bones.
Many people who went to the wedding saw that Brom smiled whenever Ichabod's name was spoken. And they wondered why he laughed out loud when anyone talked about the broken orange pumpkin found lying near Ichabod's old dusty hat.
Next day, people only found Ichabod’s hat. They believed the headless horseman had carried Ichabod away.
