Book Returned 60 Years Late
A book checked out in 1947 has been returned to a high school library in Tulsa, Okla. To cover the overdue fees, a $250 check was also delivered.
The book is called “New Word Analysis: Or School Etymology of English Derivative Words.” Martha McCabe Jarrett mailed it. Jarrett signed for the book 61 years ago when she was a sophomore. She found it while cleaning out her home in Rome, Ohio.
