陌生人的錢包

A 14-year-old boy was on a fishing trip with his family when he caught something unexpected: a stranger's wallet. Upon looking inside, Connor Halsa was even more surprised to find that it wasn't empty.Although waterlogged, the wallet was still holding some personal items and a lot of cash.

“I thought I had a big fish,”the teen said.“My cousin Brandon opened the wallet, said there was some money in it and showed it to everyone, and then we took the money out and placed it on the dashboard to let it dry off.”

As it turned out, there was about$2000 in the wallet. Connor and his father both agreed that the only course of action was to try to find the owner and return the money.“My dad said we should give it to the person, so I told him we should, too,”Connor said.

Thankfully, there was also a business card with the owner's name on it: Jim Denney, a farmer from Iowa. He'd been fishing on the very same lake last year when the wallet fell out of his pocket without him noticing.

Jim was both shocked and grateful when Connor and his family contacted him.He never imagined he'd see that wallet or its contents again. When the farmer arrived in Minnesota to pick up his belongings, he tried to give the teenager reward money.However, the boy couldn't be persuaded to take it. This impressed Jim even more. He took the family out to have dinner and gifted the young man a personalized cooler.
