Do you keep it?

Hey Jinx, I've got a similar story that I believe is true.

Fishermen and hunters are always losing things.
I visit another forum that has a thread for Lost and Found.
One hunter posted that he lost his expensive hunting bow by leaning it against his car, and then driving off,
and it was gone when he returned to the spot.
People on the forum grumbled about the lack of honesty of anyone who would "steal" someone' bow like that.

A week or so later another fellow posted that a neighbor of his had put a sign in his front yard about finding a hunting bow.
One thing lead to another and the hunter got his bow back, and gave the neighbor a reward.

Long odds... but good feelings all around.
