A lost treasure

Sixteen-year-old George Tindale is a regular magnet fisher around his home in Grantham, England.

• On one of his recent expeditions, George was shocked when he pulled a small safe out of the river. After finally prying the metal box open, he found himself staring at thousands of dollars in cash.

💰🔎 Search party... With help from his parents, George tracked down the rightful owner of the money thanks to a few bank slips in the safe. The owner, Rob Everett, worked right there in town, and said the safe had been stolen from his business twenty-two years ago.

• "I just felt there are some really nice and good people in this world," Rob shared after getting his safe back. "They could have kept the money... They wanted to return the contents and the goods to the rightful owners and I think that says a lot about humanity.”
