Clue/Question:  The battle between Sleepy Hollow’s horsemen was – – –

Answer:  COMING TO A HEAD

(Fairly challenging Jumble answer!  All the clue words were pretty simple, old reliables.  But, at least all the jumbles were new.  I thought the answer letter layout was a marvelous jumble.  I didn’t find anything about it to be obvious, what-so-ever!  The cartoon was great.  Although, I was stuck with the reduced size version.  Besides the jack-o-lanterns doing a head-to-head, also the horses are doing a head-to-head!  Excellent!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
