Clue/Question:  Sleepy Hollow’s legendary horseman loved his new boots and was – – –

Answer:  HEAD OVER HEELS

(The ever popular “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” theme!  Today’s answer works mainly as a sight gag, so some of you may have struggled to get it.  There were no new clue words today, but all of the jumbles came up as new.

The answer letter layout was a wonderful seventeen thirteen – THANKS, DON! – letter jumble.  It did a fine job of disguising the well known idiom.

The cartoon shows an early 19th Century American domestic scene.  Old Headless doesn’t look too scary, compared to his fed up missus!  Good fun!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
