MAY I appeal through the Star for anyone who may have found a ladies watch on Friday, March 24, which was lost either on a 24 bus or in the town centre.

I have recently lost my husband and this was his last gift to me. If you read this letter, would you be so kind as to hand the watch in to St Helens police station in College Street. I would be so grateful.
