Ichabod had overheard a boast of Brom Bones, that he
would double the schoolmaster up, and lay him on a shelf of
his own schoolhouse; and he was too wary to give Brom the
opportunity This left Brom no alternative but to play
boorish practical jokes upon his rival. Ichabod became the
object of whimsical persecution to Bones and his gang of
roughriders. They harried his hitherto peaceful domains;
smoked out his singing school by stopping up the chimney,
broke into the schoolhouse at night and turned everything
topsy-turvy; so that the poor schoolmaster began to think
all the witches in the country held their meetings there.
OD violent and joking
