One
is
the
groom
of
the
"
stole
,
"
--
by
name
Phelim
O'Neal
--
who
has
full
charge
of
the
horses
.
The
other
a
coachman
of
sable
skin
,
yclept
Pluto
Poindexter
;
who
would
scorn
to
look
at
a
horse
except
when
perched
upon
the
"
box
,
"
and
after
having
the
"
ribbons
"
deftly
delivered
into
his
hands
.
Since
we
last
saw
him
,
the
gay
Pluto
has
become
tamed
down
to
a
staid
and
sober
Benedict
--
black
though
he
be
.
Florinda
--
now
the
better
half
of
his
life
--
has
effected
the
transformation
.
There
is
one
other
name
known
at
Casa
del
Corvo
,
with
which
you
can
not
fail
to
become
acquainted
.
You
will
hear
it
mentioned
,
almost
every
time
you
sit
down
to
dinner
:
for
you
will
be
told
that
the
turkey
at
the
head
of
the
table
,
or
the
venison
at
its
opposite
end
,
is
the
produce
of
a
rifle
that
rarely
misses
its
aim
.
During
the
course
of
the
meal
--
but
much
more
over
the
wine
--
you
will
hear
talk
of
"
Zeb
Stump
the
hunter
.
"
You
may
not
often
see
him
.
He
will
be
gone
from
the
hacienda
,
before
you
are
out
of
your
bed
;
and
back
only
after
you
have
retired
.
But
the
huge
gobbler
seen
in
the
"
smoke-house
,
"
and
the
haunch
of
venison
hanging
by
its
side
,
are
evidence
he
has
been
there
While
sojourning
at
Casa
del
Corvo
,
you
may
get
hints
of
a
strange
story
connected
with
the
place
--
now
almost
reduced
to
a
legend
.
The
domestics
will
tell
it
you
,
but
only
in
whispers
:
since
they
know
that
it
is
a
theme
tabooed
by
the
master
and
mistress
of
the
mansion
,
in
whom
it
excites
sad
souvenirs
.
It
is
the
story
of
the
Headless
Horseman
.
