MILFORD, Del. (AP) - Harold Walls figured his wallet, and 800 bucks, were gone for good. He lost it on the job as a trash collector in Milford, Delaware, three years ago. But his supervisor had a surprise when Walls came to work earlier this month. It was the long lost wallet. And the money was still inside. It had been in a trash truck all those years, wedged behind a seat. The missing billfold was found after a Maine farmer purchased the truck at auction. Walls tells the Wilmington News Journal he never did learn the honest farmer's name. But he says it restores "a lot of faith that there are still some good people out there."
