What do I have?

I recently aquired a Boosey and Hawks clarinet. It was in a Bundy case, along with 3 mouthpieces, 2 ligs, 2 caps and 2 barrels.
One of the barrels fits the clarinet and plays well. The other barrel is wider on the outside with a slightly smaller bore and it is 63mm long. The body end of the barrel has very thick walls and is to small to fit the clarinet. The mouthpiece end of the barrel has very thin walls and is to big for the mouthpieces. It cannot possibly belong on this clarinet even though it appears to be made of the same wood as the clarinet and has metal rings on the ends that match the normal barrel. Anybody have any ideas on what it is?
