It was hidden under the log beside the stream. It had been there for as long as Jerry had been alive. He wasn't sure if anyone besides him and his friends knew of its existence. He knew that anyone could potentially find it, but it was well enough hidden that it seemed unlikely to happen. The fact that it had been there for more than 30 years attested to this. So it was quite a surprise when he found the item was missing.

What a mysterious discovery! It must have held great significance for Jerry and his friends. The sudden disappearance adds an intriguing twist to the story. Can't help but wonder who might have found it after all these years. Exciting plot twist!
