American author Washington Irving published his short story Rip Van Winkle in 1819. It was set in New York's Catskill Mountains. Rip enjoys solitude and does little work but the town loves him, especially the children. One day to get away from his wife's nagging, he goes to the mountains, There he meets a man in old Dutch clothing and then meets others playing nine-pins. All are smaller than he is—as seen here in this 1920 illustration. He drinks some liquid they give him and falls asleep for 20 years. The men are said by some to be ghosts of Henry Hudson's crew.
