About once a month I have to go to Bedford for my work. One day I went into a   21   there to have something to   22   . The waiter took my coat and put it in a small room.
About an hour later I was   23   to go. The waiter   24   me my coat. Something fell out of the pocket onto the floor. It was a small white box. I took a   25   look at the   26   . “Oh, you’ve brought   27   coat,” I said to the waiter. “It looks very much like mine,  28   it is quite new, and this isn’t my box, either.”
“Oh, then I   29   someone has taken your coat and left his,” said the waiter. “This kind of thing   30   sometimes.”
I opened the box. There was a beautiful gold   31   in it. The waiter and I   32   to go to the police station.
“Has anyone lost a ring?” I asked at the station.

He   33   the young man. A few minutes later, the man arrived.
“Yes, this is my ring,” he said. “How can I   34   you, sir? You see, I paid a lot of money for this ring and   35   I lost it on the train!”
After I told him the   36   of the coat, he said, “You haven’t been on the train. I haven’t been in the hotel, so how did my ring   37   in the coat?”
“Did anyone sit or stand next to you on the train?” asked the policeman.
“Yes,” said the young man. “But I don’t remember his face.”
“You may remember this   38   ,” said the policeman. “Was it like this one?”
