Dear Sir or Madam, My name is Steve Urkle and I am writing
this
letter to inform you about the loss of some personal belongings left on train number X12Y that arrived from San Francisco
last
Friday at 10:00 in the evening. I was travelling on the
first
wagon, and the item was forgotten under seat number 17E,
next
to the window. Concretely, it is a red solid Samsonite luggage and contains just some clothes and a purse with a gold engagement ring that has a great significance to me. I would be very grateful if you can contact the station staff in order to check if they have
such
objects in their Lost and Found section. Please do not hesitate in contacting me for any
further
information. Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for any other inconvenience that it may cause to you, Yours sincerely, Israel Sanchez
