Lost and found
Editor:
While walking with my wife, Sandra, on the Ganaraska Trail near Glen Huron Tuesday I found this exquisite little cup that some woman had accidentally dropped on the trail. (I’m sticking my neck out here because I’m assuming, from the lipstick, that it was a woman.)
Anyway, I am sure this person is frantic to have it returned. It is made from a very thin smooth substance with a delicate, little, white plastic lid. It has a green drawing of a princess on the side of the cup and I can’t be sure if this is the princess who dropped it or if the woman who lost it works for the princess.
It has a motto in two official languages which reads “We Proudly Serve.”
Maybe the owner is a servant of the princess on the cup. I am looking for any help in finding the owner because there was still some coffee in the cup and I can’t imagine that they were finished with it.
My wife suggested that they just threw it away, but why would someone walk a kilometre down an otherwise pristine trail to throw away a perfect little cup with some beverage still in it? I think my wife is wrong. People don’t carry things that far into the forest to just throw them away. Do they?
I will leave the cup at The Echo office so that the owner can be reunited with their cup.
I don’t need any reward for the return. I’m just happy to help.
