found rosary

Yesterday Erik and I went for a walk and passed the Catholic church that's near our place, St Ignatius. I saw a rosary in the bushes and picked it up. It was beautiful, with pink beads, and it was broken and dirty. It must have been there for a long time. Was I the first one to see it there in the bushes, and how did it get there? We thought up possible situations: that some one was fed up with Catholicism and tossed her rosary on the way out. That a ghost had put it there. That a little kid was playing with it and forgot it there. None of our answers seemed right. I put it back where I had found it, and we continued with our walk.
