                                                      4. AT LAST

                                   Last Wednesday Tom Smith received a letter from the local
                            police. In the letter he was asked to call at the police station. Tom
                            wondered why he was wanted by the police. However he went to
                            the police station.
                                   At the station a smiling policeman told him that his bicycle
                            had  been  found.  The  policeman  said  that  the  bicycle  had  been
                            picked up in a small village four hundred miles away. The bicycle
                            had been sent to his home by train. Tom was surprised when he
                            heard the news. He never expected the bicycle to be found. It was
                            stolen twenty years ago when Tom was a boy of fifteen.
