Tom Brennan was working in a Philadelphia office building when he noticed a black bag. The bag contained a book.
This chance discovery ended a 12-day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasure-a 120-page diary kept 190 years age by Deborah Logan," a woman who knew everybody in her day," James Green ,the librarian told the magazine American Libraries.
Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia. It also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington .D. C in the war of 1812. She describes President James Madison on horseback as "perfectly shaking with fear" during the troubled days. George
Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a French man. and praised her excellent English ．
The adventure of the lost book began September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from Eng- land to deliver the diary of his ancestor(祖先）to the Library Company, which he and his wife considered to be the best home for the diary.
Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession" a bout five minutes" when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person. On returning to his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoore was shocked to realize that he had left it in the taxi.
Without any delay, Green began calling every taxi company in the city, with no luck," I've felt sick since then," Luxmoore told reporters.
According to Green. no one has yet learned how the diary came to the office building .Tom Brennan received a reward(奖励)of 1,000,Philadelphia gained another treasure for its history, and Luxmoore told reporters," It's wonderful news. I'm on high".

汤姆.卜立南当时在费城一座办公楼里上班，他注意到一个黑色袋子，袋子里装了本书。
——一本120页，190年前黛博拉.洛根拥有的日记，经过费城藏书公司为一件历史性的珍藏12天的找寻，这个机遇性的发现结束了。图书管理员詹姆斯.格林向美国藏书杂志讲到“那是一位在她有生之年认识所有人的女士”。
日记大部分记录了费城的重大事件，还包括英军士兵于1812年战争中焚烧华盛顿特区的描述。她描写了詹姆斯.麦迪逊总统在那段艰难岁月马背上“恐惧的发抖”
她写道，乔治.华盛顿误将她当做一个法国人的老婆并夸赞她的优秀英语。
这本日记的丢失经历开始于9月4日，当时向藏书公司送自己祖先日记的科里.卢克思摩尔刚从英国抵达，他和妻子认为那是这本日记最好的归宿。
格林告诉美国的图书管理员他拿到日记“大约5分钟”，当时卢克思摩尔因为承诺要给另一个人看又拿回了。给格林看了这本珍贵的日记后在返回旅馆时，卢克思摩尔惊呆了：他把它落在出租车里了。
没有任何延误，格林给市里每家出租车公司打电话，但很不幸。“从那以后我一直很难受”卢克思摩尔告诉记者说。
根据格林所说，没人知道那日记是怎样到达办公大楼的。汤姆.卜立南得到一笔千元的奖赏，费城得到它有史以来又一件珍宝，卢克思摩尔告诉记者“绝好的消息! 我太高兴了！”
