Figuratively speaking the town of Lelghton feuzsard stands on Its head to sny "Thank You." In the days of Charles I, a wealthy London merchant, Edward Wilkes, left several parcels of land to Leighten Buzzard, the income from which was to be devoted to charity. He stipulated in his will that the ceremony of "beating the bounds," in which the parish officials go over the chief boundaries tapping them with a long willow stick on Ascension day, should be concluded with a public entertainment. For years Lelghton observed ibis stipulation and then suddenly decided it would be nice to honor the memory of Sir George by having a boy stand on his bead on each parcel of land during the beating of the bounds. This has gone on for generations, and each year, months before the ceremony, there is a strong couipeti tion among the boys of the village to be elected the official "headstander.'" While the parish official reads the clause of the will dealing with each parcel of land #n which they are standing, the boy remains in a feet-up position on the parcel.
