Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yorkshire Legends and Traditions, as Told by Her Ancient Chroniclers, Her Poets, and Journalists, 1888 While there will be also found a middle class, con sisting of relations in which it is possible to perceive a centre of fact or historical truth, but rendered in definite and indistinct by the halo of mystery or perversion with which time, or ingenuity, has sur rounded it.
