As my train wasn't due to leave for another hour,I had plenty of time.I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase.I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case,but the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came,I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant.The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case.I told him that it was an old,brown object not different from the many cases I could see on the shelves.The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case.If they were correct,he said,I could take the case away.I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down
After I had done this,I went to look among the shelves.There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment,it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up,he could have easily claimed the case already.This hadn't happened fortune nately.
