Along the back there were three rows of weasels and stoats nailed through the head or neck to the planks.

There had been a hundred in each row--about three hundred altogether.

The lapse of time had entirely dissipated the substance of many on the upper row; nothing remained but the grim and rusty nail.

Further along there hung small strips without shape.

Beyond these the nails supported something that had a rough outline still of the animal.
