Juliet's name was Capulet, an' Romeo's was Montague, an' the Capilets and the Montagues hated each other so as they could niver meet wi'out havin' a bit of a turn-up one with another. They was as bad as the Reddys an' the Mountains, only i' them daysen folks allays wore swords an' daggers, so's when they fowt they mostly killed each other.
We hunters hevn't much humanity I reckon that's what you called it but we've lost so many friends an' relatives, an' hearn of so many murders by the reddys that we look on all of 'em as wild varmints that should be killed on sight. Now, mebbe it'll interest you to know I was the feller who took the vote Williamson told you about, an' I did it 'cause I had an interest in you.
Fully six feet tall, this lithe-limbed young giant had something of the wild, free grace of the Indian in his posture. He surveyed the wondering travelers with dark, grave eyes.

It was noon when Reddy put the trembling adventurer into his trap, and with his own hands drove him home.
'Oliver Cromwell, said Master Richard. 'He was Lord Protector of England. He fought King Charles. 'Like enough, said Ichabod. 'In his daysen, many 'ears ago, there was the Reddys here and the Mountains there' indicating either house in turn by pointing with his thumb 'just as they be now.
Just as the serving-men of Capulet hated the serving-men of Montague, so the oldest servants of the Mountains hated the older servants of the Reddys. The men made the masters' quarrel their own. There was a feudal spirit in the matter, and half the fights of this outlying district of the parish were provoked by that ancient history of the brook.
