A Dog Finds a Receipt That Shouldn't Exist: The Roy Harris Story

著者：
A frozen creek yields a thirty-six-year-old diner receipt, perfectly preserved, printed with an order Roy Harris had placed every workday for decades: beef stew, white bread, large black coffee. How did a receipt from Patty's Counter dated November 22, 1983 - folded into a breast pocket and laminated - end up buried in the shallows when the man who always ordered that had died in 1981?
In this episode, we tell the chain of ordinary habits and small objects that connect three men, a small Iowa town, and a laminated piece of paper found by a dog - and we follow the question of why that exact receipt would resurface decades later.

- Roy Harris worked at the grain elevator from 1950 for thirty-one years and died at age sixty-seven on October 14, 1981.
- Roy ordered beef stew, white bread, and large black coffee at Patty's Counter at 12:15 p.m. every working day.
- Warren Peck, a cook at Patty's Counter, placed the same order on November 22, 1983, paid $4.15, folded the receipt and put it in his breast pocket.
