St George's encounter with the halitosisian dragon :
Lydda, in Palestine, boasts two local heroes. One is St George, who
was beheaded there. The other is the hero of classical mythology,
Perseus, who is said to have slain a dragon there and rescued the
maiden Andromeda. The two legends have got a little mixed up
- as in the story of Cinderella and the Three Bears - hence,
George and the Dragon.

Thank you for your enquiry, Carolyn. I'm briefly in New Hampshire
(returning to York in a day or two) visiting the mother-in-law and
looking after the parish of St Mark, Londonderry, NH.
