Lost wallet returned 39 years on

A US man has praised the "good, honest" people of Utah after a wallet he left behind 39 years ago was returned to him in Pennsylvania.Doug Schmitt, 57, left his wallet on the counter of a petrol station in Logan, Utah, in the spring of 1967.The owner put the wallet in a drawer in the hope Mr Schmitt would come back to collect it.Decades on, his son-in-law found it, tracked Mr Schmitt down on the internet and sent it to him.The wallet still contained $5 in cash and 8-cent airmail stamps. An equivalent stamp today costs 39 cents.
