LOST WALLET


This is not about my lost wallet. I found a wallet. I was out and about yesterday when I spotted a cute looking case that appeared to hold eyeglasses. My curiosity got the best of me and I reached down to see what was in the leather looking decorative case. It turned out to be a woman's wallet. I saw an Illinois drivers license and some folded up cash. I didn't count the money. I didn't investigate further. My first thought, was that perhaps if the owner was a victim of foul play, that I would be the first suspect in the case. Even after I picked it up and proceeded one mile to the police station, I imagined that some people that I passed by were looking at my suspiciously. I couldn't wait to get rid of this thing.  It's been a very long time since I have been inside a police station. My most 'recent' visit that I can remember, was back in 1978 or 1979 to pick up a housemate who had spent the night in the 'drunk tank' after offending some police officers who came to our off-campus house after a party had become a bit too raucous for the neighbors. 


I remember once losing my wallet in a park in Valley Stream, Long Island. This was long before the existence of cellphones. My memory is hazy about how it was returned, but I think someone came to my home to return it, after calling me at home. Whatever small amount of money I had was still there, and I remembered how surprised and grateful I was to get my wallet back less than a couple of hours after losing it. There should be some young woman in Chicago today, who's faith in humanity should have gone up at least a couple of notches.






There are two metal 'horses' in a small unnamed park on Sedgewick Street in Lincoln  Park, Illinois
