"As I walked home one freezing day, I
stumbled on a wallet someone had lost
in the street. I picked it up and looked
inside to find some identification so I
could call the owner. But the wallet
contained only three dollars and a
crumpled letter that looked as if it had
been in there for years.
The envelope was worn and the only
thing that was legible on it was the
return address. I started to open the
letter, hoping to find some clue. Then I
saw the dateline--1924. The letter had
been written almost sixty years ago.
It was written in a beautiful feminine

told the recipient, whose name
appeared to be Michael, that the writer
could not see him any more because her
mother forbade it. Even so, she wrote
that she would always love him. It was
signed, Hannah.
It was a beautiful letter, but there was
no way except for the name Michael,
that the owner could be identified.
Maybe if I called information, the
operator could find a phone listing for
the address on the envelope.
"Operator," I began, "this is an unusual
request. I'm trying to find the owner of a
wallet that I found. Is there anyway you
can tell me if there is a phone number
for an address that was on an envelope
in the wallet?"

She suggested I speak with her
supervisor, who hesitated for a moment
then said, "Well, there is a phone listing
at that address, but I can't give you the
number." She said, as a courtesy, she
would call that number, explain my story
and would ask them if they wanted her
to connect me. I waited a few minutes
and then she was back on the line. "I
have a party who will speak with you."
I asked the woman on the other end of
the line if she knew anyone by the name
