What book is that from?
Wikipedia cites this one: Ferguson, George (1976) [1954], "St. Nicholas of Myra or Bari", Signs and Symbols in Christian Art, Oxford, England: Oxford University Press, pp. 135–136
You can "borrow" this version for free: https://archive.org/details/signssymbolsinch0000unse/ The story is at page 81. But there're no more details, just the same short paragraph.
