　　My grandfather used to have a beautiful gold pocket watch. He wore it on a fine gold chain across the front of his waistcoat, and when I was small he promised to leave it to me in his will.

　　“When I'm gone,” he said, “this is going to be yours.”

　　Unfortunately that will never happen now. About three months ago, my grandfather came up to London to visit us. The first Sunday morning after he arrived, my youngest son said he wanted to go to the park.

　　“We'll do better than that,” said my grandfather, “we'll go and feed the pigeons in Trafalgar Square.” So off they went. They got home about tea-time and my grandfather was looking very upset.

　　“My watch,” he said, “it's gone. Someone must have stolen it while we were feeding the pigeons.”

　　“Did you tell the police?” I asked.

　　“No,” he said, “I didn't think it would do any good.”

　　“You should have reported it,” I said. “Perhaps you just lost it.”

　　“No,” he replied, shaking his head. “Someone must have taken it. But I know what I'm going to do.”

　　My grandfather put an advertisement in the Personal Column of the Evening Standard and Evening News for a week.

　　A few minutes after one on an afternoon, a small, nervous man, wearing a cloth cap, approached my grandfather. “Excuse me, Sir,” he asked, “are you the gentleman enquiring about his pocket watch?”

　　My grandfather nodded. “Well, you must understand, Sir, that I didn't have it, but the gentleman who did has asked me to give it back.”

　　From the pocket of his rather dirty overcoat, he produced my grandfather's watch. My grandfather was delighted. He paid the man 100 pounds, as promised, fixed the watch chain back where they belonged, and solemnly shook hands with the little man.

　　My grandfather went back to the bus stop. He thought he would like to have another look at his watch. So, smiling to himself, he unbuttoned his coat and looked down. The smile froze on his lips. The watch and chain were no longer there.
