"When we were first married, a couple in the next building were splitting up ... I noticed all kinds of things at the curb as I was coming home from work, so I put the dog on her leash and off we went. Long story short, I found a box full of gold and silver jewelry, obviously things she wore in her teens. I contacted the landlady and asked her if she could get in touch with the young lady so that I could return the box. I waited a couple of months and never heard a word. I still wear lots of the pieces today."
