I recently removed some simple vanity vandalism from this article using the Undo function. Before committing the edit, I further removed a spam paragraph that had been in the prior version - a link to a motorcycle tour of the surrounding area - that had been pasted into this and a few other tangentially-related articles by 67.80.205.24. I now note that the use of the Undo facility has concealed that additional removal in the edit history, which may be a bug in Undo deserving further investigation. Consider this full disclosure of the edit. - toh 21:23, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


In the last paragraph it does not seem clear who is being decapitated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.119.121.225 (talk) 23:36, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other headless horsemen in folklore

[edit]

There are other headless horsemen in various local lores, including one from central Missouri associated with the massacre of Mormon farmers at Haun's Mill. It has been recorded by the folklorists Austin and Alta Fife in an interview with an informant in Hamilton, Missouri in 1946. Might be worth mentioning that the motif is found outside of literature. --King ravana (talk) 22:51, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
