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. Many of the mythical legends, and legends and tradi tions of the marvellous, found in Yorkshire, are, of course, by no means peculiar to the county. On the contrary, they are - some or other of them - found related of places and of persons far apart in situation and time.
