A stranger, visiting in this land, asked 3 natives of
the country to which groups they belonged.
The first man said something the visitor did not
hear.
The second said, "He said he is a Handleyman."
The third man immediately retorted, "The first man
is a liar because he is a Sherandoman."
How many Sherandomen and how many Handleymen are
there among the three natives?
Can you tell which
ones are Handelymen and which ones are Sherandomen?
Explain.
The first had to say, "I am a Handleyman,"
whether he was or not.
The second man told the truth and is a
Handleyman.
If the first man lied, the third man told the
truth; if the first man told the truth, the
third man lied.
