Handkerchief Moody. The nickname of eccentric Maine pastor Joseph Moody (1700–53), who for 20 years preached with his back to his congregation. Moody wore a crepe mask when in public. Upon his death it was revealed that he had once accidentally killed a man and was ashamed to be seen. Nathaniel Hawthorne based his short story “The Minister’s Black Veil” (1836) on Moody. |
