Hi, All!


From "Three Men in a Boat" by Jerome K. Jerome

-----Beginning of the citation-----

At that moment an angel came by in the disguise of a small boy (and I
cannot think of any more effective disguise an angel could have assumed), with
a can of beer in one hand, and in the other something at the end of a string,
which he let down on to every flat stone he came across, and then pulled up
again, this producing a peculiarly unattractive sound, suggestive of suffering.
----- The end of the citation -----

Can you tell me about that "something" in boy's hand? Maybe there is a photo?
;-)

Bye, All!
Alexander Koryagin
