Found by Christine Nelson, Paulette Arneson and Gayle Kermode in front of the torpedo monument at Como Park near Lake Como. It was wrapped in clay and grass. The three women were on their lunch hour from work – one was wearing a mink coat, another a full-length leather jacket. "I had the cheap coat, so I put the dirty clump in my pocket," Kermode said. "I figured for $4,000, I could wash my hands and get my coat cleaned."
