I have not yet said it.

Dr. Thomas Lancaster This is most irregular, Constable.
I should hope so, Doctor, but in this case necessary. I shall need to operate.
Dr. Thomas Lancaster Operate? She's dead.
Of course, when I say "operate", I mean I shall need to use the operating table.
What are you running from, Magistrate Phillipse?
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
Damn you, Crane.
You had a mind to help me.
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
Yes. And now it's put me in mortal dread of...
Of what?
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
Of powers against which there is no defense. Come.
How did you know the widow was expecting a child?
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
She told me.
Then I deduce you are the father.
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
I'm not the father.
Did she tell you the name of the child's father?
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
Yes, she did. She came to me for advice as town magistrate to protect the rights of her child. I was bound by my oath of office to keep the secret, but--
Do you believe the father killed her?
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
The Horseman killed her.
How often do I have to tell you? There is no Horseman. There never was a Horseman, and never will be a Horseman. What is that thing?
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
My talisman. It protects me from the Horseman.
You, a magistrate, and your head full of such nonsense. Now tell me the name of--
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
[Ichabod is interrupted by several sheep bleating. A horse is heard in the distance]
Oh, my god! [Runs]
And you, sir?
A simple farmer who has prospered. The town looks to me as friend and counsel.
Magistrate Samuel Philipse
And landlord. And banker. Can we proceed? Thank you.
So... [Walks by Dr. Lancaster] Three persons murdered. [Walks past Baltus Van Tassel] First, Peter Van Garrett and his son, Dirk Van Garrett. [Walks by Magistrate Philipse] Both of them strong, capable men, found together... [to Reverend Steenwyck] decapitated. One week later, the widow Winship. [To Steenwyck, again] Also, decapitated. Now, I will need to ask you many questions. But first, let me ask: Is anyone suspected?
Baltus Van Tassell
a How much have your superiors explained to you, constable?
Only that the three were slain in open ground. Their heads found severed from their bodies.
Reverend Steenwyck Their heads were not found severed. Their heads were not found at all.
The heads are... gone?
Notary James Hardenbrook Taken. Taken by the Headless Horseman. Taken back to hell.
Gentlemen. Murder needs no ghosts come from the grave. We have murders in New York without benefit of ghouls and goblins.
You are a long way from New York, constable.
It was a headless horseman.
You must not excite yourself.
But it was a headless horseman!
Of course it was. That's why you're here.
No, you must believe me. It was a horseman, a dead one. Headless.
I know, I know.
You don't know because you were not there! It's all true.
Of course it is. I told you. Everyone told you.
I... saw him. [faints]
Katrina, why are you in my room?
Because it is yours.
We take the Indian Trail to the Tree of the Dead.
Young Masbath How will we recognize it?
Without difficulty, I rather fear. Then climb down to the Horseman's resting place.
Young Masbath His camp?
His grave.
Dr. Thomas Lancaster I did.
You must never move the body!
Dr. Thomas Lancaster Why not?
Because...
I have shed my tears for Brom... and yet my heart is not broken. Do you think me wicked?
No... but perhaps there is a little bit of witch in you, Katrina.
Why do you say that?
Because you have bewitched me.
Will you take nothing from Sleepy Hollow that was worth the coming here?
No. No, not nothing. [pauses] A kiss, from a lovely young woman, before she saw my face or knew my name.
Yes, without sense or reason.
Still alive?
Run, Katrina!
Dear stepdaughter... You look as if you've seen a ghost.
