Notes

A favorite story of Ed's tells of Hughie, an easygoing sort who had a fierce look when he wore a certain cap. Friends would take Hughie along whenever a fight was anticipated. One look from Hughie and his cap would silence the most quarrelsome bullies. One night, as it would happen, Hughie's friends found themselves in the worst sort of mix and quickly looked for Hughie's help. But Hughie, alas, had ventured out this time without his menacing capeen. "Oh God," one exclaimed, "somebody go fetch Hughie's cap, or there'll be hell to pay for all of us this night!"
