Having some experience using a dowsing rod these old photos were quite interesting. Mr. W. Stone nailed the feeling.
Thanks for sharing.

I can't make it work. But we had a dowser in when I was a kid. I walked about with the stick getting nothing- till he placed a hand on mine, and then it worked. There's more in the world than we can explain!
