Ichabod is the proper choice for Katrina instead of Brom Bones with his reckless nature and pranks. Ichabod is more of a gentleman and graceful with his actions and words carefully picking the right ones in place of others Katrina should choose Ichabod Crane over Brom Bones because of Ichabod’s higher intellect, his connections through town, his storytelling.
