a lot for st nick according to donald ludgin editor of the holiday articles in world book encyclopedia the americans have given sl nick a new name a new face and figure and a new means of transportation the original european version of st nick was a tall angular man who rode on a bony gray mare both the horse and st nick looked as if they hadnt had a good meal in some time the saint had deep sunken eyes and wore a flowing threadbare cloak and a black skullcap the early english settlers in this county started giving saint nicholas his new look the english children adopted the leg endary christmas figure from the pptch but they had trouble pro nouncing saint nickolous some how the name changed to santa kalouf and finally it was corrup ted to santa claus however this was only
