Dear Bill,

Thank you for everyone's interest and efforts. I would have taken a specimen if I had known it would be so hard to identify. It is an interesting mystery. It didn't look like any of the photos. It was more cigar shaped by my recollection. We intended to see if our library can get some of the recommended books.

Thanks again.

Dear George,
It may be something quite common. It's at times like this we realise how much we rely on pictures. If you have success in finding a name for it at your library please let us know. Its nice to resolve these mysteries.

Best wishes.
