A man has returned three library books to a Melbourne library—21 years overdue(误期).The books were returned to Sam Merrifield Library with a (n)1note and a $50 bill.
2Margaret Young was pleased that the books had been returned. They were in excellent3 , except for the one that the borrower admitted had been damaged by a4.
“They’re all spy books. We were just surprised and5that he has returned the books, 6after so many years,” Mrs. Young said.
The books were7on June 18, 1985 and would have to be paid almost $5,800 in overdue
8. But, because of the sweet letter and $50 note, Mrs. Young said all was9.
She said, “We thank him for returning the books and hope his conscience(良心)is 10. I’d like to think he can come back into the library one day to borrow more material11he returns it.”
To whom it may concern,
About 20 years ago I12to return the three books to your library. In fact I13them.During that time, one of the books was damaged by my dog. I have enclosed all three books and a sum of money that will go some way toward 14the damaged book.
My 15were unforgivable; a thief is a thief. Please 16my apology for stealing the books and for not having the courage to return them17.
I want you to know that for the last few years this theft has18my conscience and I am sorry I was so selfish to steal them in the first19. I hope this goes some small way to20my actions.
