FOUND Hitchhiker "Cling Clang"

From: nomad_pnw (mark.bendickson@verizon.net) | Date: 2002-08-22 05:47:29 UTC
We found Cling Clang the HH on August 16, 2002, in the Live Free Or
Die LB at Fort Stark, Newcastle Island in New Hampshire.

The story goes,

Cling Clang was an actual peddler man who traveled up and down the
coast of Maine and New Hampshire selling his wares. He carried two
large stilts that he would place in front of him so he could catapult
himself 12 feet forward in one leap. This way he covered twice as
much ground in half the time. His peddlers pack which was strapped to
his back would make all kinds of noise which is where his name came
from.

Please help Cling Clang see the world.

We will honor this request in the very near future.
